Ah, just noticed it only uses 2 x 5.25 bays ! so it will fit !

Excellent :)

Cheers

Hmmm, not too expensive actually. The only downside is that I wanted
something that would fit directly into my server... but well worth
considering !

Thanks :)

How about this:

If it's not as cheap as you were looking for, overclockers.co.uk have
some Vantec caddies but not sure whether the ide ones are hot-pluggable
(SATA ones appear to be)

solution for my automation/media server. What I basically want is two new
drives on my server, both 120gb. They should be in caddies so they can be
removed easily. I also need to be able to remove/insert them without
downing the server. I don't need RAID or anything like that... just a
simple IDE ATA133/100 drives. They will be used for disk to disk backups,
then moved off-site.
