Hello and Happy Holidays!

Hey, I guess I did not explain myself correctly. I don't want to turn it in to a RAID. I just want to take out the old single ribben with one hard drive connector and put in its place a ribben that has two hard drive connectors. i.e Master and Slave.
So, with that being said and in mind now...can I do this?

Here are my questions. I hope you can help me.

I have a Snap Server 1000v2 250GB HD.

With my box open at all times, using a two HD connector single ribben with 250GB(OS HD) connected to master end ribben and adding a second HD connect on slave.
Question:
1.) Can I add this second HD ?
2.) On second HD should I set it to slave or CS ? (250GB is set to CS)
3.) If I can add the second HD to the ribben, do I have to be concerned with lossing information from my master HD? Or will it just format the second HD without disturbing the Pri. Master 250GB HD?
4.) Will the motherboard's power supply handle the extra power from the second drive? Or with this fry the power supply over time?

Thanks again for your help in advanced,
Sincerely,
bitor
