You may actually be able to find a case that's similar to the G5 case for a pc. I've seen a few of these, they call them all-in-one pcs. Or, at least, if you can't find an empty case, you might be able to find a diagram of what's inside, see how they put it together.

you will most likely need to open both sides of the case. There should be 4 screws holding it in place. Remove these and all of the wires and the drive should slide out.

Sony makes a great DVD-RW drive that will read and write both DVD's and CD's.  I'm sure that there are others on the market as well.  You can place this in the extra bay if you power supply have enough wattage output to handle it.  If not, replace your current CD drive with the DVD-RW.

checked hp/compaq site, your computer has 2 available slots for drives.  1 5.25" and 1 3.5" unfortunately both are external.  You may still be able to fit a new hdd in the 3.5" external without having it stick out but you will only know that by opening up the case and checking that visually.  I would think you should be able to find some way to do this, maybe some sort of adapter to fit the drive in the 5.25 bay and leave the cover over the opening?\n\nThe other potential problem is that the IDE cable to the original hdd may only have 2 connectors, 1 for the mobo and the other for the hdd.  This is easily remedied by purchasing a 3 headed cable.  \n\nHope this helps.\n\nHere is link from hp about installing a hard drive.\nhttp://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=us&rule=25711&dlc=en&product=326832&docname=bph03429
