There is a closed-off section for an optical drive in Aspire 17 e. Can one be installed?

There is a closed-off space for an optical drive on the side of my Aspire. Most (all?) models just have a piece of plastic covering the area. Is it possible for users to install one. Optical drive upgrade? or are the electronic components not there or not connectable?

Do you mean an Aspire E17? If so, what is the exact model number (ex: E17 E5-721-69FX, or E17 E5-774G-52W1)?

Am I the only one around here that gets tired of feeling like they're talking to themselves???
