Hmm, just looked at the site. Yes, the newer system does mention that it will power 90 and 120 watt notebooks (though what monster users 120 watts? I thought the Clevo group of systems topped at 90.). I'd be a bit cautious regarding...

I do have some leeway regarding our backup system, since I am lead contact and maintainer (in particular with upgrades and fixes). Don't get me wrong, however; At work our groups strive to be careful, with people checking each other,...

Quick update: Well, the enovatech laptop bay is apparently designed for HP laptops, they're not sure if they'd work in a Sager. I'm checking which HP models that supports, perhaps I'll get lucky. They also have a 'retrofit' kit...

I'm looking for a small 2.5" drive, or enclosure for a drive, that would support hardware 'crypting. This is to hold the more personal & important stuff (i.e. tax info and major work projects) off my machines, and not available...
