Firewire Dual Enclosure Retailer ?

Does anybody know where I can source a dual enclosure Firewire case like this - http://www.specialtech.co.uk/spshop/customer/product.php?productid=83&cat=&page= ?

I`m looking for the same model really or at least something at around the same price. It`s also available from a company called Barebones but both Specialtech and Barebones seem rather slow a replying to e-mails.

This is a problem as I need the case urgently. :confused:

Any takers ? :crap:

P.S. Yes, I have searched the web - but no luck so far.
 
Thanks TRIaXOR - RapidPCs just made a sale ! :)

Though I searched by description and chipset I could only ever come up with Specialtech and Barebone. Strange :confused:

Although this is/was an essentially dead thread I suggest anyone who feels like placing an order with specialtech read this thread first - http://www.moddin.net/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1644&whichpage=3 . Getting a response out of them seems (according to customers) like getting blood from a stone - and not displaying contact details beyond an e-mail address is against U.K. e-commerce rules, as far as I know. Hopefully this will prevent anybody placing a hasty order with them - until things become clearer. :nod:
 
Yes, I ordered from Rapid PCs who had the same dual 3.5 inch enclosure - it was delivered promptly and works well. Since Specialtech didn`t respond to my initial e-mail I ruled them out for starters, luckily as it turns out.

It`s a shame really because they have some tempting items like this - http://www.specialtech.co.uk/spshop/customer/product.php?productid=329&cat=60&page=2 - 4 Bay External 5.25" Firewire (IEEE1394) to IDE Case . My current PC is a bit too crowded for any more items so I`m looking for decent external firewire housings.

These are the type of enclosures (or something close) I`m after -

4 bay - http://www.cooldrives.com/fi138004atha.html .
8 bay - http://www.cooldrives.com/mubay85fi800.html .

But from the U.K. to avoid shipping costs and import VAT. So far the only two sources I`ve found are

a) http://www.span.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=29_1302 .
b) This U.S. store on eBay ( http://stores.ebay.com/Superldg-Store ) - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4122192975&category=167 .

Does/can anyone recommend a cheapish 5.25" 4/8 bay firewire enclosure in the U.K. ?
