Great system, checks all the boxes for a fast PC

Verified Purchase:Yes
Great computer. The formfactor case is perfect size. I'm a tinkerer so I'm never really satisfied and will always be upgrading and tweaking so it's hard to review it just out of the box, but as is, it's terrific. But I still want to improve it.
Standard config on this PC is 8GB so Best Buy's bump to 12 is welcomed and enjoyed. Networking is as fast as your hardware will allow (internet connection, router, etc) so wired/wireless is fast. Bluetooth found my devies in no time flat. There are 6 USB but the 4 in the back are USB 2.0, the 2 in front are USB 3.0, just FYI. And 1 TB HDD is enough for most people.
Doesn't seem to be a slot or extra cabling inside the case to add a second HDD or SSD, I wanted to use an SSD for the OS and all apps, and the 1 TB HDD for a mirror. But the 1TB HDD is more than adequate, it's quiet, 7200rpm, and seems fine. I'll still go SSD on it some day because I can't stay out of Best Buy.
Overall great system. Would have loved a second HDMI input, I'm using the HDMI and VGA now, and it's fine for my purposes.
Price can't be beat for what you get and what it can do.

Can I add 2nd hard drive to this unit?

Not easliy. There's no slot to put a second HDD or SDD nor is there any cabling for it. You could probably use the DVD cabling and make changes to the BIOS. I wanted to add a second drive when I got it, but the 1TB drive is quiet, fast 7200rpm, and now I really don't miss a second drive. I just partitioned the HDD. Down the road I'll toss the HDD for an SSD. The rest of the PC guts are great, it's a keeper.
