Anyone know how to install a DVD/CD drive in a HYTE y60 case?

So recently I started a small collection of physical CDs to listen to in my spare time outside of youtube, and I ended up realizing that HYTE doesnt have any DVD/CD peripherals to install, kinda like that LED screen they have
Everywhere I look leads to dead ends so I wanted to know if anyone has any clue on how to work around this issue that doesnt require an external DVD/CD player filling up a USB slit

There's really no where in that case that you could install a drive. The PCIE slots in the rear are too small. You'd pretty much need a new case if you specifically want to mount the drive to the case.
If using your external USB slots is the main problem, and if you have spare USB headers on your motherboard, you could get an a female USB-A to female 5 or 9-pin USB header, and run the cable out the PCIE slots at the rear to your drive (might need extensions as the adapters tend to be short). Or just use a hub lol.

You need a 5.25 drive bay, which the case doesn't have. Your only option keeping it is to modify the case
If you're willing to get a need case, I do know thr fractal design pop air has a 5m25 drive bay and a compartment for it, though. I don't know what others have one
