Please excuse me if this has been covered already, what info I have found relates to the USA.
I have a Mac mini as my media centre, and as you would expect over time I have filled up external HDDs and upgraded to new bigger ones.
My set up for a while has been 2x 1TB external USB HDDs, one mirroring the other purely as a back up.
The obvious first issue with this, is the two sets of wires and the two power supplies.
The second is i use other HDDs to back up the mini itself, and to keep work on.
I have just upgraded to a single 2TB externals drive, and I am just about to buy another as it's back up.
Eventually, these will get full and I'll need to go through this all again.
So my question is, can I get a multiple HDD enclosure that will take 4x 3.5" HDDs, can be swapped easily when necessary, will Connect to the Mac mini with a single wire and has a single power supply?
Or am I living in a dream world?
Thanks in Advance.
