Hard Drive replacement with 2 SSD's in original hard drive bay?

I have a mid 2011 iMac 27inch i7 3.4 . I am wondering if anyone has considered fitting dual SSD hardrives in the existing hard drive bay?

Without doing the teardown and then seeing if it fits, I would like to find out first.

Could there be a build up of heat in this area?

Can anyone see any other problems?

Is this a good question?

While you can have a dual drive configuration, you really can't use the 3.5" bay to house both drives. The height of the two 2.5" drives would be pushing things for the space.

Here's the Dual hard drive kit:

It also has an SD card slot. You can get a TARDISK A13A that will fuse:
