Whether it's easy to take out the optical drive depends on the laptop. If it uses normal slim optical drives, then yeah, your idea will work. I've seen some slim 5.25" ODD to 2.5" HDD adapters on Newegg. What you could also do is keep the Calibre metadata database on the SSD while keeping the actual books on a separate disk. There's a DOS batch file somewhere in the Calibre install directory showing you how to do this.
