Yes, exactly the same.

And the cabling etc is not very bulky. All of this stuff should fit into one side of the existing drive tray, leaving the other side for a single SATA drive to be installed (500GB is the current max available).

I'll see if I have the right combination of connectors on hand here to try it, and post a photo if I do.

EDIT: the sata-to-pata adapter I have here is designed to plug direclty into the back of a sata drive, so it cannot be used with a sata data/power cable. This sounds good, but it also makes it stick out a bit much for placing into an unmodified empeg drive tray.

If I were to fab a custom tray, or just cut out an existing one, then it would fit fine.

Cheers
