Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have been looking inside the computer for the place to install the Sata SSD or Sata HDD?  There is a cage that also houses the DVD rewrite.  Here are some pics of my problem:  Pic 1 shows it won't fit.  Pic 2 shows HDD trying to install.  Pic 3 shows the cage, I guess is where Hard Drive goes.  So what do I need to do to install a Sata SSD or the HDD?  Thanks for your help:)

@fergie111,

The secondary HD position is a cage. It will accept 3.5 or 2.5 drives, or an adapter tray.
