They make some decent externals spinning at 7200rpm. Portable and desktop. They are not known for making a good SSD though. |

There are two buses, yes. One is only empty if it is not a server model or has not been modified.
You will need a cable for the second SATA, in the link that Badger sent. _________________ 2.0 GHz i7 Mini 8 GB RAM, OWC Merc Extreme SSD & Samsung Spinpoint
