Product: HP M01-F1124

Hi, I'm looking to buy the HP M01-F1124 Desktop PC with an  AMD Ryzen 5 processor, 12 GB of RAM, and 1 TB of disk space. I read the product specifications and it said that a disc drive was not included, even though there is a large slot on the tower for what looks like an optical drive. Is it possible for me to purchase an optical drive for the computer separately?

Have you considered an external optical-drive, that connects to a USB port, and has its own power-supply ?

I have, although it would be nice to have an internal optical drive since the computer has what appears to be an empty drive bay. If that's not an option, then I'm welcome to accept an external USB optical drive as a solution.
