QNAP's NAS enclosures might not be particularly cheap, but they have plenty of features. This two-bay model has hot-swap drive bays, a 2Ghz Marvell CPU, 512MB of RAM and lots of Qpkg add-ons to keep advanced users happy.

Also below are the performance results using Passmark's Advanced Disk Test (Computeractive doesn't publish these for bare enclosures). I used my standard setup of three identical 250GB Hitachi CinemaStar drives in a RAID-0 configuration. As you can see, it's no sluggard.
