Playing Disc Games Without Drive Bay

NateIRL

Hey guys i have a NZXT H440 and as most of would know it has no 5.25" drive bays, and I was wondering how to play hard copies of games. I was going to buy The Crew on PC, and it is ALOT cheaper at a local store. Can you install the game with the disc and then play it without the disc? Any help would be amazing!

99% of disc based games contain the cd key which you can input on Steam/Uplay/Origin etc to redeem the digital copy of the game

 

It should be the same for The Crew, since its a ubisoft game it will require UPlay anywhere

 

alternatively shop around, or look on G2A or other digital stores, sometimes you can get better prices too

 

OR, USB dvd drive
