Where can you get an optical drive HDD caddy? (p150em)
The reseller I'm looking to buy a P150EM from next month does not offer an option for the caddy only, and I don't want to pay over 100€ for a third hard drive that I'll never need. So I'm looking to buy one separately later, but I have no idea where I could find it. Any help?
Edit: oh also, same thing for the v.4 95% LCD

Ask your reseller for a original CLEVO caddy, they look perfect and you won´t need to use your optical unit cover. They just fit so perfectly and they have the original chassis lines.

I asked them about this but not only do they speak bad English, I haven't gotten a reply yet. It could be they don't understand me.

You dont need to get the clevo specific one, any 12.7mm caddy will work and then you take the bezel off the CD ROM and put it on the caddy.

Wow really? That's a very good thing to know! Saves so much trouble and probably money too. To be honest I always had the image that this whole ODD to HDD idea is Clevo's hifi stuff, guess I should have looked into it more haha.

Sure any odd cady will do, i just prefer the stock for cosmetic reasons. :P
I´m sorry if my first reply might have led anyone to believe that only a stock Clevo caddy would do.

The screen you can get on ebay or amazon. Just be careful you get the correct AUO panel. Some sellers will advertise one and say you will get that OR an LG panel, so you will almost certainly get the cheaper one. Also make sure the size, finish, and resolution are correct. This I think is the screen - AUO B156HW01 V4 V.4 LAPTOP LCD SCREEN 15.6" Full-HD.
