You'd be silly to waste all that space for only a single drive though, especially when you can pickup enclosures that will let you run 4-6 drives in the same amount of space.

Yes ... there's cheaper options out there, but these are my favourite in terms of quality/reliability.

haha, I do this too. It's a desktop, it's not moving anywhere. And even if it does, who cares.

Yup... I've got my two 256GB M4's stuck somewhere with velcro.

Haha. Good to see I am not the only one.

What are the chances of actually wanting to run that many SSDs in one machine though? and do you actually want your boot drive in a front-accessible caddy?

Velcro for me as well.
