There is a hack to make room for a second 5.25" drive. But it  
requires that you cut the sheet metal frame. There's the link to  
photographs of how it was done on a B&W G3. Same frame design.

I can't find it right now. But I can later if you or anyone else on  
the list wants it let the list know.
