    No you can't. The MultiBay II slots are not as tall as the old MultiBay slots so it won't fit. You'll have to get an external MultiBay enclosure to use your older devices. I had the same question since I have an old MultiBay FDD I wanted to use in my nx8220, but sadly, it doesn't fit. Not only that, I believe the actual interface connector is different.
