To install the standard slim ODD you could theoretically just the drive from the front is the pre-assembled housing slide (mine did not work out that because the board of the power supply is made deep in the housing with virtually no play and the drive did not want to turn to slip past). But you can also disassemble the cabinet until the halves are simply plugged into each other and are connected by flexible tongues, therefore is just to feel each other!
Then one comes to the terminal board, the one after removal easier can put on the SATA connector. Now you put the ODD with infected board again in the lower half and can then hang up the upper half and snap with gentle pressure. Do not cant.
Only now screwed to the two screws into the holes provided for the back (by the board directly into the metal cage of ODD).
The enclosed aperture is fixed best by first opens the drawer (by pressing the emergency eject). Then stuck only on the (seen from the front) right the wide horizontal nose in the horizontal hole of the drawer. Then let introduce restichen vertical tabs from right to left in the openings and engage end up with slight pressure. Then the panel is sitting without wobbling and flush with the housing.
When connected to a computer that Win7 USB SATA Adapter is easily recognized as a USB mass storage device, and the DVD drive installed as a PLDS DVD-RW DS8A8SH USB Device with me.
The attached next to a normal AB USB cable USB power cable is not needed in my case.
A manual would not have hurt, so that you know how to use the two screws properly, but a little craft fun does not hurt.
Very positive are the rubber feet on the bottom to prevent slipping reliable.
