The S340 doesn't have a place to house an optical drive you best option for that would probably to get an external USB based unit.

Most games theses days even if your purchase disks will direct you to download the game content, so unless you really have old games or things you must use a disk drive for they aren't as common place theses days. ASs mentioned an external USB drive is what I meant by getting USB based unit: https://www.amazon.com/Electronics-Portable-Rewriter-External-GP60NB50/dp/B00C2AMK2M/ref=sr_1_sc_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1469739344&sr=8-3-spell

How expensive can an external CD drive be? Plus it would probably be easier and look better if you would use it in your setup

imo every case has space for fitting a slimline slot-in drive. with a litlle modding you could make it really stealthy.

Instead of reaching below your desk or to your desktop you (if you set it up right) might only have to reach under your monitor. Also you could use it as an accessory to make your setup match together better e.g. color coordinate
