Can I put a MO drive in the Zip bay ?

I don't want to use the Zip ddrive, so the Zip bay is useless to me.



Can I put something else in there ?



I want to put an internal Magneto-optical drive (3.5 " disks) in the Zip bay. Is it possible ?



Is it true that we can't actually put anything else than the zip drive or a floppy drive in this bay ?

    That's how I call those latest PowerMac.



    "Quick" doesn't really 'fit' to it. 'Slow' sounds better

    Also, check out the Systems area of <a href="http://www.xlr8yourmac.com"; target="_blank">www.xlr8yourmac.com</a> . I read just today how someone added a second full size drive to their Sawtooth G4.

    Thanks for the tip, Leonis. I've been wondering where to get these for a while.
