This review is from : 2ND HDD Hard Drive Caddy 4 Dell E6410 E6510 M4500
Handy but cantankerous . Easy way to add an extra drive to your laptop. I didn't use the disk drive very much so this makes the real estate more valuable.
I have two of these. One with an ssd and one with a standard spinning platter.
Installation is very simple. Two flush screws secure a narrow plastic bar that secures the hard drive in place. Make sure you push the hard drive in all the way (i didn't at first).
Once you have two hard drives (the normal one and the one in your new caddy) installed at the same time, there will be an additional boot screen that adds a couple of seconds to the process by asking you which drive you want to boot from.
The only con is trying to remove the caddy from the laptop. With the disk drive, there is a click to extend pull tab that locks the disk drive in and aids you in its removal. There is no such thing on this caddy. There is really no easy way, that I have found, to remove this caddy once it is in. There is a VERY small (scale= 30 year old 6 ft+ 200 lb+) "removal" notch that reminds me why children were used in manufacturing for soo long. With me, it takes some cajoling and usually involves me breaking the face plate off once or twice.
So all in all, if you don't plan on removing the caddy in front of people, there are no issues.
