Yes...

but only with great diffiuclty.

Actually, it's not that difficult if you have a technical hardware
background ... it takes time to do and you need to be careful in not
damaging other facets of the box.

All in all, mine took six hours going through some of the procedures twice
.... but I'm glad I did it because the extra drive space (120 GB vs. 40) and
the ability to access the box via shell and web are worth it.
