A tweaker’s dream toy – but not for everyone
Engadget oggles Addonics’ new RAID box today, an awesome tech toy for RAID-to-go. $99.
Interesting comments in the post on how much cooler it would be if it didn’t need an external power suppy. That’s the trade-off between tinkerable boxes like this and a ready-to-use storage product like Seagate’s BlackArmor. Just like home construction projects, the last 10% of “finish” can really make a difference in portable storage.
It all depends on who you are and what you need.
I could see Addonics’ Portable Dual Drive enclosure as a great starting point for a kick-butt specialized solution from a system builder.

I want one! Only 4 months to Christmas.

I purchased one and it consistently overheated. Drive choice might be important to keep it running. More details on my website if interested.
