Yes, the HD's are powered in the chassis (it can handle 2) and there are 3 different ways to interface them to the computer:

- IDE/PCI controller card (I believe they support the SIIG cards)
- Firewire/IDE interface port
- eSATA port

The last 2 mount in the PCI slots on the back, though they don't use the bus. Magma doesn't supply any of those, so you have to get creative. Their tech support is outstanding, however.
