Dead easy, just copy how the existing is set up. Make sure you buy like for like (i.e ide or scsi), just make sure you earth yourself to avoid static.YNWA

On a desktop, dead easy; on a laptop, can be a little bit more cumbersome

If you've got a working DVD drive I wouldn't bother replacing it unless you are copying discs on a very regular basis.
If you do decide to change it, it's really easy.It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0
