Hi Brian, Zytech, sell the 'IceCube' brand of enclosures as well as LaCie. Both of which have been around for many years and have built a solid reputation for reliability. Some members of the list may also want to comment - good and bad?
Just one thing to note with the off the shelf products is that you will only get 1 year warranty on the LaCie external drive, whereas our drives have 1 year on the enclosure and at least 3 years on the drive (8MB cache drives). As the drive is the major cost, you may want to consider this as part of your decision. Please email me off list for further information and/or pricing. Cheers.
