Combo enclosure for blu-ray burner and HD

[sharjohn]

I am looking for an enclosure that will allow for a blu- ray burner (must allow for tray to open or disk to slid into a slot) and one or two hard drives. I know that LG has one, but the reviews are not good. It would be nice to have two hard drives for the processing of the BD disk down to BD -9 or BD -5 and the burner all in one enclosure. I have a brand new iMac that I am also running windows 7 on and I do not have the option of adding the writer or additonal hard drives to it. Therefore I am stuck with equipment that is external. One enclosure for both the writer and HD's would be so sweet. Any recommendations?

What type of computer interface? Multiple drive enclosures are usually eSATA. Haven't seen that sort of enclosure for USB 2.0 and I'm not sure how well a BD burner will work over USB. You can likely find a three or four bay 5.25" eSATA enclosure. Then you could use 5.25" > 3.5" adapters to mount the HDDs.
