I've started a new project. This one looks very doable. In the HDD area in the IIci, there's quite a bit of room, but not quite enough room for two HDDs.
However, when I looked at the lid of the IIci, there's a 1/8" worth of ribbing on the inside.
I think that if I cut out some of the ribbing on the inside, there should be enough room to put in 2 internal HDDs.
I created a custom SCSI cable for my IIci using my cable kit I bought, spacing the connectors just right to stack two HDDs. I then used FWB RAID ToolKit to create a striped RAID 0 with two 250MB Apple SCSI HDDs.
So far it runs great! Not sure if there's a noticeable speed difference, but it's more of a "because I can" project. Plus, I'm rather proud of my custom rainbow SCSI cable.
Tomorrow I'll measure twice, then take my Dremel to the top of the case and cut out the ribs. I'd use a nibbler, but I don't have one. Maybe wire cutters will work; cut it into little pieces, then break them off with pliers.
