Actually the 9500 case that I had in mind was that of a dead machine, but after posting, I got a seven-drive RAID enclosure in the "mother of all conquests" conquest. But in general, I agree that old Macs should be kept as Macs.

I haven't fired the RAID up yet to find out quite how it is configured, as I do not have the necessary external LVD cable. All in good time....
