Reply: (edit)sorry, only one HDD slot, and there is no internal support for SCSI only IDE, why would a mac have backwards compatibility?

Reply: (edit)You can add a second HD to an iMac. It would need o be external. You'll need a case with power supply and either a SCSI to USB converter or SCSI to Firewire converter. -Gerald

Reply: (edit)Yes you can put a second hard drive In
the i-mac A and B.By using a flat cable
there is some space under the mother
board but just! You have to cut some
plastic and do it careful.The i-mac is
using enhanced IDE and can run one HD
from a flat cable with the cd drive and one
from a flat cable with the internal HD
