Washac macrumors 68030 Original poster Jul 2, 2006 2,531 134 Jun 23, 2011 #1 Hi I think I read somewhere that the Mac Pro will only take so many HDs of a certain size, I maybe wrong, hence my question. I have a 640GB as the main drive and a second 2TB drive. Can I install another drive of 1 or 2TB ?

As long as you have free drive slots, no problem at all.
