Err, in the hdd cage in the right of your picture... top right is for CD/DVD, below that is for HDD's.

Er, top right.

I cant see how, the space there is far wider than the HDD and i see no way it to be held in place (i should mention the HDD came with no screws or anything)

same issue, i dont know how to fix it in place

Bottom right is for 3.5" hard drives, the cage above is 2.5" for smaller HDD's or SSD's & the top right is for CD/DVD drives.

I imagine the case would have come with 'rail/slide on' brackets for putting on the HDD's and then sliding them into the case area.

check the packaging that the case came in, there maybe adaptors to fit to the HDD's before fitting to the cage?

From the Info on the sale page:
Drive Bays: 5.25" External x 3 (tool-free retainers) / 3.5" Internal x 4 (tool-free retainers) / 2.5" Internal x 4 (3 tool-free retainers, 1 mount with screws)
