I know it can 'cus I put them into mine. The floppy drives mount in the front panel and the hard drive on top and behind the upperdrive. This config. doesn't leave much room inside, but it all fits. You do have to get (or make) a special bracket for the hard drive installation. Also some hard drives (I'm guessing with bigger magnetic fields) do cause slight screen shake when they access. (The yolk is right above the hard disk in this configuration) Seagate 20meg doesn't but Quantum 40 meg does...... ~Here are the corrections I see fit to add: ~Mac Plus: One internal, one external. ~Mac SE: If (apple hard disk), one internal and one external. ~ If int. hard disk installed later then two int. floppy drives. ~Mac SE/30: One internal, one external.(probably same as SE/ but not sure!) ~Mac II: Two internal. ~Mac IIx: Two internal. ~Mac IIcx: One internal, one external. ~Mac IIci: One internal, one external. ~Mac Port: One internal, one external (I think -- never seen one with two ~ drives) ~That should about cover it. Now, for hard disks, these machines can have ~internal hard disks (at least Apple-supported internal hard disks): ~Mac SE, Mac SE/30, Mac II, Mac IIx, Mac IIci, Mac IIcx, Mac Portable ~Please correct me if I slipped up somewhere. ~-Michael ---> It was just a small addition but I had just installed it in my SE so I thought I'd add to the list. ---> Bob -- ---> Bob Bishop ---> bob@ivucsb.sba.ca.us <--- ---> <--- ---> <--- ---> Life's a bitch... then she takes half! <---
