Does the motherboard ( pegatron memphis s ) have the extra SATA plug and does the power unit ( 300 watt ) have the capacity to add something like a Barracuda Seagate 7200.10 HD? I called the help desk and was bounced around to 4 people and they could not answer these questions. And I guess I should ask if there is a place to attach the HD so it is not loose. I have two of these hard drives and would love to put them to use as a back-up internal hard drive, if possible. I am aware that I can kit them to be external HD via USB. Thanks, Mike.

Hi,

 

You should be able to add a 2.5" hard drive or a SSD to your PC.  See the below image.
