    Simple question: Can I install a second/additional hard drive in my G2S-A1?

    How about the G1S (15" version)

    For that you need something called a multibay / hotswappable bay. The V1S and R1E models have it, for instance.

    I think its an Ultrabay, you can replace your DVD ROM with an ultra bay fitted with an internal HDD. It would work like a charm! try it and let us know :d

    Well, it has many names. But it is NOT available on the G1, so he can't do it, unfortunately.
