[QUOTE="jhazel, post: 10517"] Actually, the post was referring to the floppy drive...not the hard drive. The floppy drive inside is a standard floppy drive minus the front bezel. You can remove the shell and replace the drive yourself. It's been a while since I've cracked open a 5500 but I don't recall it being too much of a hassle. An alternative would be to slap a CDRW drive in place of the CD-ROM drive and just use CDs instead of floppy discs. Floppy discs are a dinosaur that should not be perpetuated. Josh [/QUOTE]
