Yeah i've got 1 x 250gig internal and 1 x 80gig internal. It's a pain pulling them out and upgrading cos my OS is on the 80gig drive and don't want to rebuild me PC. Would be nice to have 1 USB caddie with space for 3 drives!

Netgear do a NAS which you can plug internal drives into.

Google the SC101

Also check out the Buffalo Linkstations (Also a NAS).

I use one of these for prividing communal storage for everyone on my LAN (all the computers in the house) allowing me to play my media anywhere in the house from any machine. With the linkstation you can plug extra storage via USB (be it an external hard drive or a Flash Pen Drive)
