Yes, pulled the dvd drive i never need, put in a cage and moved the 750GB stock drive there. Put the SSD into the HD bay and it works like a champ.
I have 750GB available for media and assets, and then pretty much live on the SSD drive. So, a new larger one is going to be really nice and have plenty of space for cache files along with my work projects.
