I have a few hundred GB of VMs, plus another few hundred GB of setup files. Not 
really suitable to access that all from Dropbox et al ☺

So, this is geared towards people who need to carry stuff around with them

I did a search yesterday for mSata enclosures. Was briefly excited and then 
realised that the only time I use my current USB3 2.5” drive is when I need to 
do a backup of something using Acronis. (love Acronis, especially being able to 
boot it from a USB and back something up with no OS running). All my stuff is 
on dropbox which I can get at from anywhere. I feel USB devices are now the 
occasional tool rather than the everyday tool of a few years ago.
Still, you can't hold the cloud in your hand. *torn*

FWIW, this is the mSATA enclosure I got: 
http://www.amazon.com/Mushkin-AT-ENCKIT-Atlas-mSATA-Enclosure/dp/B00GQV1VFA/
(ordered from RamCity in Brissie but the above link has pictures). Coupled with 
Samsung 840 EVO mSata SSD.

I used to think a 2.5” enclosure was relatively small. Now, my 2.5” enclosures 
look positively old-school.
