Looking for an enclosure

[xanis]

Looking for a good, reasonably-priced enclosure for 2 2.5'' HDDs. I have two identical 160GB drives and I'm looking for something so I can use them both and set up RAID. Any suggestions?

If I have your request correctly (double 2.5" external enclosure with built in RAID capabilities), I have only ever seen one and that has only come to market in the last few months.

This is it. It only accepts SATA drives but does have USB and eSATA connections.

If you do find something else, please post it for my future reference.

Yep, you understood me correctly. I dunno why I though something like this would be fairly common...

Not Today! :laugh:

Maybe someone else has better finder skills but I looked for this type of unit without RAID @ a year ago and found nothing.

I have 5 X 2.5" drives laying around with nothing to do.

Four are in external cases, so it's not like they can't be used, but they're just not worth investing any money for a "final solution".

These are the type of things that I always mean to sell on Ebay/Craigs List, never get around to it, and end up giving them away after they've lost most of their value.

You'll have that! :laugh:
