[ILUG] external cheap drive arrays for linux

[Stephen Shirley]

Hi,
	I'm looking for an external hard drive array that fulfills the 
following criteria:

1. Presents the disks, individually, in a way that has solid linux 
kernel support (something like u320 scsi or SAS or...)
2. Takes sata drives
3. Doesn't do raid (or if it does allows that to be disabled)
4. Takes at least 4 disks
4. Cheap (i'll be upset if i can't find something for under a grand).

So, any suggestions? I've been googling a bit and asking people, but 
these requirements seem to be a bit of an oddity. The closest i've found 
is the hp smart array 20 enclosure (http://url.ie/st) which is vastly 
over priced for what i want ($2.8k+) and just falls into the category of 
overkill.

Thanks,
Steve
