Hey guys,

Basically at the moment I have one internal hard drive, that I have put into an external enclosure to use for backups. I am now thinking I would like to connect this up to the network because I want to use it for both my laptop and desktop backups, and connecting it to the network will make it much easier.

The only thing is I am guessing I would need to buy a new enclosure of some kind because my current one has no network connectivity or USB port. I am thinking of one that has at least 2 bays, if possible for future expandability and some kind of password protection. Is this the right idea? If so does anybody have any suggestions of what type of enclosure I should buy?

Many thanks :)
