[geeks] small raid enclosures

[RichT]

I like the look the the Radsonic internal bays they have a 5 disk case that
fits in 3X5.25" bay, they just have a the sata/esata ports on the back jbod
style.

they have external ones as well...

i got one of there 4220 external cases, it very well build (even though the
OS is err "fun")
