Interesting, which one did you use? (I guess it may be important to 
use one that works with the Iyonix, although maybe there's better 
support for that than with USB drives)

The amount of room isn't really a problem, as I could put it 
externally. Before I open it, I just thought I'd hear if someone knows 
it's possible for this model (Cube). If I need to split the power 
lead, or something, that shouldn't be a problem, provided the PSU can 
take the extra load.
