I do find the flimsy cases to be a bit of a liability though.

Anyone in southern California who wants big disk boxes, mail me.  I still
have 2 of the 6-bay 5.25" FH rackmount trays left.  With a bit of bracket
construction you could easily fit 20-30 3.5" hh drives into one of them,
and the powersupplies are beefy enough to handle it.
