They make spacers? Could have used that last year when I replaced a drive in my lappy.

Yeah, like the one I linked.

Some drives from more considerate manufacturers apparently come with plastic ones you can stick on.

When I first googled it, I saw a promising solution utilizing foam tape to create the necessary cushioning. But the cost of a roll of the foam tape is actually more expensive than just buying the spacer that's designed specifically for this that I linked.

I am unsure, though...seemed like the empty space was more on the "underside" of the drive than the label side. Hopefully the spacer doesn't force the connectors in slightly crooked...
