A basic no-brand SAS enclosure from span.com connected to an LSI 3801E
in a beige box. Nothing fancy, and it was a few years ago, so I don't
have much to add to the discussion beyond that power remark.
I'm happy with it, though. It's running Solaris 10 and I've been able to
do everything I needed with it, including flashing HBA and disk
firmwares. Failing disks were handled easily too.
