One thing I'm not getting rid of is my data. TBs worth of music, movies/TV, and huge RAW photo files.

I am in the market for a good, reliable, moderately priced (not fancy, not cheapo) external drive enclosure. Ideally, I want one that can store between 4 or 5 4TB 3.5 HDD drives, and one 2.5 SSD drive. I will connect this via USB 3.0 or eSATA to a laptop.

Any suggestions would be welcomed.

I don't know anything about this type of tech, so any things I need to keep in mind when buying something like this would be helpful.

This looks promising, though I don't know if it will accept a 2.5" SSD:
