    The 7200 can take the half height drives. The clips that hold the drive
    screw on from the bottom.

                    Bob:

                    Those hard drives you see are ATAPI (IDE), and will not work
    on a 7200 Mac.
            You need a SCSI drive; or more specifically a 1/3rd height (1.0"
    height) 3.5"
            drive with 50 pin connector. Check out:
            <http://www.compgeeks.com/details.asp?invtid=ST34572N> $62

                    I'm not sure if the 7200 can take a half-height drive
    (anyone?), but if it can
            take a 1.6" high drive you can pick up a 1 gig drive for $19.95 at:
            <http://www.compgeeks.com/details.asp?invtid=205-0666>

                    Hope this helps!
                    Dan
