Bill:

If you're talking about the original G3 Mini Tower, in its standard 
configuration, you can put at least two drives in it. The original drive 
sits at the top rear of the case. The second drive can go in an empty 
bay at the front of the machine.

If you add a host adapter card and are willing to sacrifice a Zip, Cd or 
floppy drive, you can get three or even four drives installed. Of couse 
at some point you're probably gonna start taxing the power supply.

Even the desktop models of the G3 can house at least two drives. One 
goes on the motherboard and one sits in the bay just above the Zip drive.
