My XT already contained all the appropriate cabling for either a 
second floppy drive or a second hard drive.  I removed the floppy
(and put it in a separate case at the end of a long cable where 
I work) and slipped a Miniscribe 17 megabyte drive in where the floppy
used to be.  Everything has worked fine, including the power supply.
However, since I was a little bit concerned about heat buildup, I
now run the PC without its outer cover (no big deal since I have it
in a rack anyway).  This may not have really been necessary, but
it made me feel a bit better.
