I am a sucker for ridiculously large drives and also for bargains - I couldn't resist this, although it is a refurb (18TB for $170 - less than $10 per TB):


now I have to ask - can anyone recommended a drive case or a SATA to USB3 connector that can accommodate a drive of this capacity?

thanks!

Unless the physical dimensions of the drive itself do not fall within the industry-wide specifications for 3.5" HDDs, it should work with any enclosure or SATA to USB adapter. You would just want to verify that the enclosure's max transfer speeds equal or exceed the HDDs max speeds in order to maximize performance.
