A single eSATA connector for a box holding 4 disks? Sounds interesting. Do you have a link to a sample of such enclosure?
In or via Europe for example there is Fantec brand They have e.g. 8-bay enclosure with usb3 and esata via portmultiplier backplane or something
Look for FANTEC QB-X8US3-6G on amazon.com / ebay.com
There is also a 4bay case by them
I am not in for the speed, so mdraid software based with single esata and port multiplier would suffice for me as I am not in for high speed reads or writes, but I am looking into a robust and resilient setup which is not too complicated. robustness/100% availability.. what I also recommend is as much redundancy as possible. e.g. on one server I have 2 S-ATA controllers, in total 12 3.5" harddisks using these backplanes http://www.chieftec.com/backplane_CBP.html, to keep HDDs hot swappable. each mirror on one controller. In past I had a controller failing (i
