You can add an optical drive of course, the board supports it and the case has the space. https://www.amazon.com/Asus-Serial-ATA-Internal-Optical-DRW-24B1ST/dp/B0033Z2BAQ for example. All of them seem to have a black front :/ An external drive might be better, https://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-Portable-External-GP65NB60/dp/B00ODDEABK/. Then the NZXT Source 340 would be an option, for a better case.
PS: The Samsung 960 Evo could replace the SATA-SSD, it is a faster NVMe drive, you have the budget and would profit from it.
The white case doesn't have a 5.25 bay so I guess you should ask yourselves if the optical drive is really necessary. Or you could simply buy an external one (also available in white): you can store it anywhere easily since it's so small and only plug it when you have to use an optical disk. You'll realise that the instances are very rare.
I'm talking from experience: I bought a 64GB SSD at a time when
SSD prices where much higher and it was complicated to manage. My current SSD is 250GB and it still feels cramped but at least now it's manageable. 120GB is definitely insufficient.
The 80+ rating isn't just about energy efficiency, it's also about build quality, reliability and safety. If you leave the PC powered on 24/7, buy a 80+Gold and it will pay for itself over time. If not, 80+Bronze is ok.
