I recommend an AMS Venus DS3R Pro enclosure. Its a dual-drive portable unit with hardware RAID, aaand a handle! It supports USB 2.0 and eSATA. I have two 1.5 TB drives running RAID-1 in mine.
It fits in a briefcase. Its awesome. I just got my two 1.4 TB drives from Fry's for ~$70 each. They are slower RPM, but for external storage, you dont notice. -- ME2 On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 9:46 AM, Jon Harris <[email protected]> wrote: > Sorry for the cross post but it has been a long time since I was in the > market to get a personal USB drive.
