I just gave a "B&W" Power Mac to a friend; though it has the Ultra2
SCSI in it, it comes with the ability to plug in an ATA hard drive,
too, as long as you have the correct cable. (In fact, I pulled the SCSI
drive before giving it to my friend, and put in an ATA drive.) I
believe the 9 GB Ultra2 SCSI drive was a more pricey configuration on
this model -- in other words, optional. More specs are available on
EveryMac.com, which has extensive details on all Apple products.
