[QUOTE="4Hummer, post: 1150071, member: 179534"] I know the Feeling, I've been looking into something like this: [URL='https://www.sansdigital.com/']TowerSTOR TS2CT - 2 Bay SATA to USB 2.0 / eSATA / 1394a / 1394b RAID Enclosure[/URL] (outdated link removed) I like the Idea of the Raid Engine being built into the Controller, so no compatibility issues with any OS. Can be set up for Raid 0 or 1. However a little Pricey ($212.99 CDN from TigerDirect.ca) considering you still need to add the drives. It supports USB 2.0 Firewire 400, Firewire 800 and ESATA, Firewire 800 is what I'd be using to connect it to my MAC (Fastest read/write access) Raid 1 is disk mirroring, so If one drive goes bad you don't loose all your data, Raid 0 is much much faster (data Striping) but no redundancy. Maybe Santa will be good to me this year...... meaning I may buy it for myself. And it's almost as sexy as my iMac [/QUOTE]
