Are you able to install multiple drives inside the Apple MacBook Pro MA896LL/A so you have extra storage for media?

No, there is no provision for installing more drives internally, however, apple has provided a firewire 800 and firewire 400 port along with 2 usb ports for connecting to a large external hardrive, which is what I did. The 160gb internal drive does fill up fast especially when you make a partition to install windows on your compuer. The external solution works fine for me though.

No. Apple needs to update their hardware. If you are going techy buy a pc.

No, however you may use an external drive via firewire or usb. I have made some reviews on some of these drives.
