External Hard drive enclosures for storage

I'm sure there was some talk about external HD enclosures - had a look via
the archives and cant find anything. NAS would be nice, but I think the
load on the network would be too great - unless I bought a gigabit card
and the NAS device itself supported gigabit and 100Mb.

If I had an enclosure system I can shrink the server down to a basic
system - easier to keep cool, and free up some space !

Anyone like to share with me what they use for enclosures ? I'm assuming
that it would need a controller of sorts - unless they are USB2 but Im not
sure it has the bandwidth.
