    Just has one, but you can swap out the optical for a second hard drive if you want.

    Not out of the box, no. You can do either of the following

    a.) Have your reseller install a caddy
    b.) Use the space that normally would hold an optical drive to hold a second hard drive.

    X7200 / 7280 = 3 hdds
    P170HM / 8170 = 2 hdds
    P150HM / 8150 = 1 hdd
    P151HM1 / 8130 = 1 hdd

    Please note: you can add an additional hard drive to all of these models by removing the optical drive and installing a hdd caddy in the optical drive bay. :)

    A case/adapter for your harddrive so that it replaces the DVD drive in your notebook with a harddrive.

    A hard drive caddy is a small piece of equipment designed to hold an internal laptop hard drive and slide into the same place your optical drive would go. Usually you just need to swap the optical drive bracket and faceplate over to the caddy so you can secure it and keep the same continuity of the laptop. Edit: Electric Shock beat me :(
