before I tell you to install linux and be done with it.... ;^) why not go to eBay and get a drive for it? you can get one for $10-$20 incl shipping also you can grab a standard ide cable from any desktop and a standard power cable splitter, run those out the vacant drive opening and plug in ANY atapi/ata device it will be on an internal bus, so you will have speed as well as compatibility the hdd in the imac is on a single drive cable, but the controller is standard ata and will support two devices, so swap the cable and add a drive no it aint purdy, but it works -- -- NOT sent from an iphone,blackberry,Nokia, or any handheld. -- I'm a PC(x86 AND ppc) AND I RUN LINUX!!!
