Hehe, it looks like a hard drive.... It is in the Hard drive bay. Take my advice, with your knowledge, take it to a technician.

It looks very similar to the new one, if you have already bought it.
If you insist on doing this yourself, look for wide flat gray cables. One will go from the motherboard to the CD drive(s), the other will go to the disk. The disk will also have a power cable going to it. It will he held in by 4 screws, maybe on the sides, or maybe on the "bottom" of the drive. The drive may be tucked almost anywhere, probably horizontal but possibly mounted vertically.
Unplug the computer before you open it up, and be careful. Good luck.

Maybe you shouldn't be doing this. Would you do surgery on yourself too?

it's about the size of postcard, but maybe about 1.5" thick...
