I recently noticed that I don't use my slimline dvd-rom, so I thought that people surely thought of some useful extensions that one can replace it with. But I couldn't find anything besides a frame for a secondary SSD/HDD. Is there really no other use?

Hi guys I will be building an APU budget gaming rig based on the new A10 7870k. I'm possibly getting a graphics card in the future to upgrade the machine. I put the fact that I might get a graphics card into consideration; probably an entry level 1080p GPU like the R7 260X. So then I thought...
