			 What do you use to hook up other HDD's to your computer instead of opening your case all the time? I was using this for a while, but it's plastic and the SATA part kept on breaking..Now I want something a lot sturdier..any suggestions?

A friend has it, and it's awesome.  I was going to buy one, but now I don't really have the need for it. It's very easy to connect and works quite well. I assume it need to be hooked into an e-sata cabable port. 
I've also heard good things about the drive docks that sit on a desk and connect via USB . I think Monoprice has those, too. if you're wondering, i've used them for MANY products adn I've only had one wonky item, whcih they sent a repalcement for, free. Didnt; even have to return the original. Prices are insane adn service is excellent.

			 Thanks Abram, I'll look into it some more, but from the looks of this, It only uses SATA, but not 100% sure...Well, most of the one's I use are SATA HDD's anyway...I might just get this one...THanks!
