	There is indeed space to hold 5 full height 5.25" things.
	On the panel under the front door there are four places
	to put the ready/write-protect switch for the RD disks.
	I've seen (an unsupported configuration by the way) four
	RD54s and a TK50 in the BA123.  Turning the system on was
	an interesting experience for the lurking fear the power 
	supplies wouldn't be able to handle the load.

	Assuming you can get all the interesting cables from the
	drives to the cardcage area, the only thing you have to
	worry about is power.  Oh, and RF emission...

	I'd only put something in there that didn't use much
	power.  If you put a disk check with the vendor to make
	sure nothing happens to it when laying on it's side.
