I put an IBM SCSI drive in the internal bay of my 6100 sans mounting
bracket, it works but just don't try to move it.  Just set your new SCSI
address, hook up the power and SCSI cables and you're in business.  I saw
Apple 6100 face plate bezels at Computer City once, around $15.  Any
authorized Apple dealer should be able to order one in for you.
