The drive caddy is great, I have one of those too. Really nice setup.
Where is this awesome wallpaper of Dubai and Burj Khalifa at sun set?
Lol
Same Mac, Same monitor, same work
Pretty similar setup here too, hard to argue against what works best!

Easy one: no one makes 5.25″ HDD’s; those are optical drives. The physically largest HDD’s nowadays are 3.5″ (desktop drives).
ToughER one: I’m confused about, in the same section, saying there’s 5 x 1.5TB drives. I see two of them plugged into the 1 mentioned dual docking station, but I don’t see the other three…
The missing 3 HDD’s could totally be somewhere else in the picture, but the mistake with the 5.25″ vs 3.5″ drives is definitely wrong. Sorry, (kinda) nitpicking
Hi JeffY,
You are right! The HDD are indeed 3.5″, I made a mistake. The other three are not in the image, since they contain old backups and i don’t use them a lot.
