Any of you guys ever buy/own one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8798722213&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 ?
I'm thinking of putting all my loose and extra drives in this one firewire enclosure and I was wondering if you had any other recommendations. This one uses one Oxford 911 chipset/board to drive 2 bays (as opposed to 1 each) and I thought I read somewhere that this might be a negative issue. Also, I'm not doing video or anything that requires all drives to be reading/writing at once so speed is not really an issue here. It's pretty much going to be a big music server. Thanks!
