does it have space for installing a second hard drive?

It has 4 bays and can be purchased with up to 4 hard drives. Mine is equipped with one hard drive and one disc drive.

absolutely...there is a cage that is designed to hold two hard drives. very simple to remove the cage(one screw) and install a second hard drive.

No it doesn't but you my remove the CD drive and install second SSD or HDD.

Yes, You many need a drive cable if it doesn't come with the second hard Drive. There will be a power connector already there.

A solid state drive could be fitted to replace the existing hard drive. These are currently very expensive, particularly if you wanted to replace the existing 1 Terra-byte disc. There would not be room to fit an additional drive. Of course, you could always use an external SSD, utilising one of the many the USB ports.

You can install as many hard drives as you have available sata ports and power plugs. If you run out of bays, you can just velcro em to the interior of the case. I have an SSD drive for my OS and 3 2 terabyte storage drives. You can use the smaller bays for your SSD

Yes, two hard drives are accessible at the same time with this device; it works great!

Yes. It looks like you can put 2 drives in if you want. I suggest an SSD as your boot drive, and this one for storage.

I think it might be difficult to have two 3.5 drives in this case. I have one 3.5" 3TB Drive and two 2.5" drives. One is the boot SSD and the second is a notebook drive. The 2.5" drives are sitting where the DID would go which I don't have installed.

Hi, This unit only have 1 3.5" HDD bay and it is already used. No more extra bay for expansion. Thanks, PCrush

I did add a second hard drive, but I am no pro. The metal plate blocking the slot is a knock out, so I got pliers and ripped it (gently,) out. I had to go buy a cable (I bought a longer version of the cable that attached the drive to my old computer) and simply installed it in the same way my old drive was installed. I may simply have gotten lucky. I remember an old conversation about making one drive a slave to the other, but I didn't do anything like that, and the drives are both working, so maybe I did get lucky. You are better off talking to a real tech guy, and someone who is 20 years younger than I am.

I'm pretty sure it has just one hard drive. I don't think they could physically fit a second hard drive into a netbook as it is. I had an ASUS Eee PC 1000HA which had two partitions, each at about 80GB. Once I installed Linux, only one hard drive was detected with a capacity of about 149GB, so there was one hard drive in that netbook.

I just used one HD and screwed it in to the holes in the bottom part of the chassis. Not sure what I would do about the second drive.

If your desktop machine is the same as mine, you can add another drive in the removable slot. It must be a sata drive.

yes it is a full sized case and i should think you can add an additional hard drive.

You can fit two hard drives in this case. It's pretty tight though, with the drives difficult to get in and out over the processor fan. If you plan on a custom CPU cooler, you may have to install the drives first. Depending on the mobo you pick, you may or may not have to install the drives before installing the mobo even with a stock cooler. Kind of a pain for maintenance but you shouldn't be swapping out hard drives very often. I have used different motherboards in this case and was able to squeeze one drive in and out without removing the board.

Yes, there is one for a disc drive and one bay for an additional hard drive.
