That's true, although technically the Stacker could hold 14x 750GB
(3x 4-in-3s plus 2x 5.25" bays). Switch to the spanking new 1TB

Shame your drives aren't SATA Jin.
A few of these would increase your potential capacity

Naw, those are kinda older 200GB drives (though there are 4x 320GBs in there).
Waiting for the 750GB
NV+ models.

Wow.. *pic
LOL, you're on crack!

Nevermind the hardware specs, for home use you'd be
better "served"
@$6000 (or less) building your own solution with 5TB+
SATA using
off-the-shelf components & F
I am currently using the black version of this:

I have 6 drives in the RAID array and another separate boot drive.
Hopefully, I will be able to upgrade soon to using this for the actual
HTPC while housing the RAID array separately:
