Models that have only one hard disk drive have an available bay to hold
an additional 3.5-inch hard disk drive. The drive you install must not
require front panel access. Your system can support ATA-33, ATA-66 or
ATA-100 hard disk drives. Sony recommends an ATA-100 hard disk drive
to take full advantage of the system's features. The hard disk drive access
light blinks when either internal drive is active.

drive’s documentation for configuration instructions).

“Removing the Side Cover”
