I don't need this myself....at least that's what I'm telling myself.


Product Description:
The EliteSTOR ES104TI Series is a 1U 4 bay rack-mountable solution that supports both SATA (Serial ATA) and SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interfaces. This system includes four hot-swappable 3.5" hard drive trays for Hard Drive drives, and supports SAS 3.0-Gb/s or SATA 3.0-Gb/s, with up to 1TB per hard drive. Designed to provide top performance, each individual hard drive is connected to your computer using a four dedicated eSATA channel for SATA devices, and Infiniband / Multilane / SAS 4x / SFF-8470) for SAS devices. With this dedicated quad channel design, the ES104TI can also used with RAID Host Bus Adapter (HBA) to provide an external RAID rackmount storage. ES104TI is the ideal storage solution for applications requiring high data throughput, availability, and flexibility in configuration.

I would love to have a need for this but I hope it helps someone! 🙂
 
Not bad, more bays than the servers I've looked at with only two. I'd need a rack before I'd be tempted though
 
thats a good price for the 1u rackmount. I looked at this some time back, and it's still a good deal if ur looking for this. By comparison, You could get the Norco 4U 20 drive rackmount for around $330. But then you would either have to stick a full system in there, or pick up some sata/esata controller bridge which could be an additional $150-$400.
I don't really *need* it, but if I found this locally, I would be severely tempted to pick up a few to use w/the say multilane sata cards I picked up on ebay...
 
Sorry, but no products were found. one day only i wonder ? my dad was looking for something like this before, would have been ideal
 
heh, i looked at this last nite before going to bed, and seriously thought about it... right after i posted i was thinkin, i should buy it cuz its cheap and it may not last...
and gee, it didnt last... maybe it was a price mistake? or last few on hand?
