Hey guys I was hoping you could help, has anyone owned or had experience with a multiple drive enclosure. I've got 10 180gb SSD's I want to raid and use as a backup server but I need to find a somewhat cheap cage for them. 

 

Does anyone know of anything? 

 

 

 

Thanks

You could use a NAS, or it might be time to build a in home server.

I've got a home server, but no available drive bays, it runs my domain, hosts a server environment and runs backups for 11 computers on my network and my friends.

If I had the room I totally would, they are sitting in a walk in closet with an A/C unit. 

 

We've got some extra racks at work and I've almost taken one but I don't know where I would put it.
