RAID case? or how about a multiple drive external hdd case?

I'm trying to build my first file server with some sort of RAID configuration (haven't decided which yet).

thanks all.

Here you go. I absolutely love these things. I have two in my machine. They are especially good with a controller that has the pins for hd activity...

Don't know much about server specs but my case can house up to 6 HDD's

how about a cube-esque? i'm on newegg right now but i can't seem to find anything. i'd like something similar to this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811165006 but not that expensive.

I prefer my case, the Enermax FS2300BB. Especially with the SATA enclosures.... A 23 bay case made into a 27 bay case.
