[snip] Hi Miles, I recently bought such a beast for backup purposes. I choose an Icy Box IB-360-BL. This is an external closure for 3.5" IDE/SATA disks and features both USB and Firewire interfaces. The disk itself I had to buy separately, but that was exactly what I wanted. Pros: I can change disks whenever I want without bringing down the system and now I have a very flexible storage solution. Moreso because I have an USB network adapter, making it possible to turn the whole thing into a stand-alone network storage solution. Con: those irritating blue LEDs that are way too bright.
