Can I add 2nd hard drive to this unit? null

Only if you swapped out the original with a smaller 2.5". The factory base model comes with a 3.5" which takes up the whole space whereas the higher end model has 2 of the 2.5" drives.

Not easliy. There's no slot to put a second HDD or SDD nor is there any cabling for it. You could probably use the DVD cabling and make changes to the BIOS. I wanted to add a second drive when I got it, but the 1TB drive is quiet, fast 7200rpm, and now I really don't miss a second drive. I just partitioned the HDD. Down the road I'll toss the HDD for an SSD. The rest of the PC guts are great, it's a keeper.
