The beauty of this is that if you ever get a second PC then you can just shove one of the drives in that and start using the o/s that's on it right away with the minimum of fuss.

OK its not ideal in every circumstance but its an another option.
Hard drive caddys can be very useful Mine have fans to help cool the drives too Also allows you to have a reserve installation ready to run if anything happens to your primary drive
