  Pretty much.  Well, really, needs to not take lots of space, power,
or bandwidth.

  Just to be a wise-ass: In the above, there's a small wrinkle in your
"hot plug" scenario... ;-)

  You could, of course, use two old PC cases (one drive in each), or,
more sanely, just a couple of small external disk enclosures, which go
for less than $25 these days.

  In any event, if someone wants to donate any of that, or money to
buy same, I'm sure we'd be happy to take it.  :)
