I'm toying with the idea of ditching my desktop PC and getting a laptop to replace it. One of the main things holding me back is that I have a bunch of IDE and SATA drives that I'd like to use. Can anybody recommend any supported hardware to allow me to do this? I'm aware of those external USB enclosures but have no experience with them and would like to make sure that this stuff a) works and b) doesn't suck before purchasing.
Laptop recommendations would also be good. I've already checked the list on the website but the more input the better. Thanks.
