hi everyone,

Bought the DV6-6168TX last Dec and still very much in love with this unit. I would like to share my experience of installing the 2nd HDD caddy from Casey.
I still need to do some modification to the casing because the face plate latches need very small adjustments. With these mod, you can detach the faceplate again if need to reattach the DVD drive. However, the way I did this may likely void any warranty (if there is any).

Removal and expanding the size of opening enable easier fitting of the face plate and removal for future.

The two inner latch (smaller), can hold the cover in place.

Sonovab-... I see what I was doing wrong back when I tried to do the same thing now.

Just one question: how did you manage to mount the metal bracket at the back of the DVD drive to the caddy?
