[QUOTE="icebreakr, post: 319168, member: 54581"] I bought a HD tower with port multiplier as well about a year ago, and I bought a cheap controller like the ones that come with your eSata towers and had quite a few problems with it. It Made my pc freeze a few times, had very slow transfert speed (Sometimes, I couldn't even stream a DVD, picture was choppy and sound too, took me a while to realise my sata card was responsible for that). So my suggestion is to get a better raid card and it will probably save you some trouble. I bought a HighPoint RocketRaid 2314 and I nerver had a problem with it. The only thing I did was upgrade the firmware and install the latest drivers. After that everything worked like a charm. Your USB 2 enclosure will be fast enough for streaming DVDs, but it will be slow to copy them to it... But if time is not a problem, then it will work well. [/QUOTE]
