Enclosure's a bit lightweight and plasticky, but looks ok. Bright blue power LED doesn't match the Mini's fainter white LED though :)<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Stellvia]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 1:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Kuroutoshikou's disk enclosures: the Mac mini's cheap, Japanese friends]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</guid><description><![CDATA[Pricier, but solidly built:<br><br><a href="http://www.newertech.com/products/ministackv2.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.newertech.com/products/ministackv2.php</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Harbinger]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 2:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Kuroutoshikou's disk enclosures: the Mac mini's cheap, Japanese friends]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</guid><description><![CDATA[Chad there's tons of things like that, look up the mini stack v2 for instance, a lot of them come with hollow cases for your own drive.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Evan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 15th 2006 10:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Kuroutoshikou's disk enclosures: the Mac mini's cheap, Japanese friends]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/15/kuroutoshikous-disk-enclosures-the-mac-minis-japanese-friends/</guid><description><![CDATA[I use the NexStar GX 370, which looks sort of like the mini but not quite. It's got 3 extra USB ports in it as well, which is excellent. Built in fans also mean that it cools the drives down when they get too hot.
