I see where you're going there. What kind of enclosure or unit would I be hooking up into using that Areca card? Is it expandable beyond that, like in a piggy-backing setup?

We use the Areca expander in our system. But, what you can do is check with Areca to see what other expanders they support. In our experience they typically support most of the SAS/SATA Expanders.

and what kind of disk enclosures should I be looking at? I seem to have a hard time finding these.
Borsaid,
...just go to the Areca website. You should be able to find what you're looking for there.

I've looked exhaustively on their website. I don't see anywhere where they're actually selling any type of disk enclosures, other than raid sub-systems.
Borsaid -
There are many enclosures that work with the Areca. You can contact them with your question and they will send you a list of boxes approved for their systems.
Here's a link for you.
