In short - no, there isnīt
What you could do is buy a IDE controller or SATA PCI-card and connect extra disks via that.

not without removing a CD-rom, you can only have 2 devices on 1 ide cable.

don't forget to set the first hard drive to master and the second to slave on the jumpers on the back

Well i will to disconect 2 cd rom drives ( I just brought a DVD Burner ).
Any advices using 2 HDD at the same time? I know how to redirect "My Documents" but it would be good to set Z: (new HDD) as the main directory to store programs without having to re-write the location in every installation wizard.
Tips? Maybe changing something in the registry?

i've got 2 40gig hard drives and would advise you to have them both on the same file format (FAT32 or NTFS), so you can send files between the 2, it wont work if the main hard drive is fat32 and the new one is ntfs.
