Earlier this year I was working building the network for a security conference and one of the guys had a similar device‡.

It came in really handy when we had to install all the servers (he had multiple flavors of Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc.).

I've been meaning to pick one up, for the rare times when I find myself somewhere needing a bunch of boot disks; but I can vouch that at least this one is really neat.

Very nice, it's cheap enough too http://www.amazon.com/Zalman-VE200-B-Black-Drive-Enclosure/d...

you could throw a 64GB SSD in there and still be below the price of the 16GB Isostick http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-SSDNow-Solid-SV100S2-64GZ/dp/...
