Hard Drive Into Floppy Drive Bay???

Is it possible to insert a sturdy drive into a floppy drive bay? Especially surrounded by a Dell? I have a Dell Optiplex GX60 and I do not intend on using the floppy drive installed on it, and I want to install a second frozen drive, but there are no more bay left, bar that useless floppy drive bay.



And please contribute an answer that IS helpful. None of that two-word sentence WTF , NO bullshit. I'd appreciate a honourable concise answer.

Hard Drive Into Floppy Drive Bay???

The only passageway to know for sure if it will fit is to get the dimensions of the tricky drive and compare that to the space left whne you remove the floppy. Please entry that the IDE cable that hooks up to your floppy is the wrong type. It is too small. However, if you have one HDD, within should be a second IDE plug available on that line. You also want a source for power. The floppy's is the wrong size. You need duplicate size as the HDD or an optical drive (CD or DVDROM drive)



Now, if it won't fit, you are not out of luck. You can get an external crate for the drive. They usually come with a power cable and a USB or Firewire cable. Check what ports you own available(USB and/or Firewire) and get an appropriate work area.
