So today I was poking around looking at hard drives for my windows home server box, and then I started looking at new computer cases that could accommodate more hard drives, and then I found Sata enclosures that take 3 x 5.25" slots and makes space for 5 hard drives.

So the case I found can accommodate 12 5.25" spaces, so 12 spaces, can accommodate 4 of those enclosures, each enclosure can hold 5 hard drives, so that means I could effectively get a 20 hard drive file server.

Man the things I could do with 20 hard drives…. Specially with the new Samsung "green" hard drives that use 12.2watts of power at full load. I put together a little wish list to show you what I am talking about, enjoy: My File Server Wish List

So what would you do with 20 x 750gig file server?
