Ya, I could probably use that, thanks! I'll PM you with the info.
I'll probably need help hooking it all up tho, and I have no cables. What do I need from the card to the card to it?

Cool! I'll open it later and get some pic for us too look at. Its got 6 drives already.
I doubt I'll be able to Ebay it one piece. It weighs a ton. I'd have to part it out.

well for it to be a raid they all have to be the same size but you can just make some sort of cluster. research it first as i am not particularly familiar with other methods of fabricating these systems
