    I have the UGT-ST350CB Vantec card :D . Have been unable to use it in a mobile setting, since I have not found a double enclosure to mount a pair of 1.8 or 2.5" HD & power them yet :mad: ! A single enclosure may be affordable to some, but purchase of 2 separate units I consider $$$ and bulkier than I like.
    NOTE: vista drivers in NE reviews :(
    Another reviewer seems to be using it OK in RAID w/ DT size HD (3.5"), but I do not consider this a portable solution!

    Thanks. That was the one I was looking at. I should have it by next week. Maybe I'll do a review of it after some use.
