This is a device, unlike the external usb drives, which runs normal "internal" ide devices externally by offering you the proper connections...comes with a hard case to enclose your devices.

It seems that what you are looking for is pretty commonly referred to as simply "External USB enclosures." Since people are plugging their favorites, I was just asked about this today by my mother and I sent her the following link to Tiger Direct (I am NOT affiliated with them, but they have pretty good prices and a decent reputation with myself and my group of techie friends).

i think you are missing the point, i have a couple of external hdds in enclosures, but what i want to purchase is the controll cards 'only' to set up a case with multiple hdds, run from a usb hubb. can buy the external cases but only want the cards
lol
