ANyone know of a good way to put a second internal drive into a G4DP? I want to add a CD-RW to my system, but I dont' want to remove my D VD-RAM drive and I want to have it internal.

So,
1. Does anyone know where I can get a second front panel that opens and matches?
2. Will the eject button on the keyboard work on either drive (or both)?
3. Internal Firewire CD-RW recommendations? (I also have a SCSI card, but it seems a shame to waste the internal Firewire.)

Thanks!!
-jjh
Did you know that this would happen?

There's no way to add another internal CD to your machine, that extra bay is just 3.5 inches for a Zip. Also, the DP machines no longer have the internal Firewire, unlike the previous G4 machines. There were never any internal FW drives anyway.
