Secure the HDD by whatever means you can.

If anything can flop around or be 'sticky-taped' to the side of the case let it be the SSD since it is very light and has no moving parts after all.

A loose HDD will fail in short order.

You should be able to screw the HDD to the base of the case, there are holes for this already.

Not only are there holes for it already, but your case comes with the screws and rubber inserts for the holes that are there.

the holes on the bottom of the case don't match up to the HDD

Take a look at where I installed the SSD and HDD. Both are firmly secured and screwed down.
