[LUNI] What to do with lots of ATA drives [was: External chassis suggestion]

[Scott Lockwood]

There are all kinds of different cages you can buy, but I kinda favor
the idea of hooking them all to a large USB hub and mounting them to
either a board, or other box you can make cheaply. That's the most cost
effective, if ugly, way to do it.
