Hi Keiran,

I'd love to get the Linksys NSLU2 & Lacie USB / Firewire drive
enclosure if they are still available.

Thanks!

Matt

What physical size are the SAS disks ?  if they are 2.5 then they would be useful for the servers being auctioned
if they are 3.5 then I could be interested

The firewire enclosure would be useful for the space.

I've loaned out my usb hdd enclosure 3 or 4 times to people that
needed one for a day or two.

It'll be another use for the hdd's in the quiet room too.

Please make sure if you do drop it off, that it's properly labeled,
and documented on the wiki, so people don't just think, "What is
this?! More electrical clutter?" and stick it in the 3 week bins.
