So Im finally considering practicing what I preach and get some off site backups. I have 2-2.5 TB of data that either cant be replaced or would be a PITA to replace. Right now its all wholed up and duplicated on my WHS. A recent break-in at an apartment a few buildings away got me thinking that my server is an easy target for a thief to walk off with and the lost of the hardware would be nothing compared to the data loss. So Im looking to get a drop-in style external dock to hook up to my server and a few extra drives to periodically backup to and to take and leave at the office.
Since Im going to be dealing with bear drives (cheaper and easier to do maintenance\diagnostics) I am going to need a carrying case for them. Im looking to get a hard shell case that has antistatic foam and preferably compartments already in it and large enough for 2-3 drives. Ive done some googleing and found a few things that I think might work but wanted to see if anyone had any useful input to provide.
I did see some cases from Pelican but their smallest one was like $130 which is far more than I think I need\want to spend. Im not taking these drives out into the wild or anything extreme just from apartment, to car, to office.
