The JMR 4-bay is about as cheap as you'll find as far as I know. The 2K$ plus is for the 10 slot. There might be something cheaper at http://www.scsistuff.com. Yes. Pricey. The only other thing is to find (and I don't know a source) of paddlebard adapters with the 40-pin SCA connector, a +5/+12 Molex power connector and two serial-in serial-out ports that you can then draw to a DB-9 (Female) to try and 'make your own' FC case....
