Jose is absolutely correct, except that you can install ATA, IDE drives
in the SCSI bay location, however you need to get a PCI card and the
IDE cables that will connect the newly installed disk to the internal
connector of the PCI card. I'm pretty sure (without checking) that the
power connectors are the same for SCSI and IDE.
