Since the D/Bay is basically just an external IDE controller, you will only get USB2 throughput on the devices in it. If you're using the hard drive module, why not put that in the laptops D/Bay and put whatever optical device you have in the external D/Bay - USB2 is more than sufficient for CD-ROM/DVD Drives.
