Hi,

I bought an EZ-Dock from SWS a little while back and it has worked great so
far.  It has both eSATA and USB-2.0 ports.  The best feature is that it really
is just a dock.  You plug the drive vertically into the top of the unit.  This
makes hot-swapping, if supported, really easy, and you never have to unscrew
anything to get the drive in or out or to change drives.

It's an EZ-Dock from Kingwin.  I think I paid $30 for it... something like
that, anyway.
