Actually -in- the dreamcast itself, which lends the question, how do we get 
at it? If there is an IDE bus that is accessible, this lends more 
possibility to the idea of hooking up an actual hard drive to the unit. 
Since the zip drive was supposed to be all self-containted, I'm assuming 
enough current runs through the modem port to power a small drive.
