Huh, I think that is for mounting Inside the case , not outside,
and to use same power supply from the case.

It would be not practical to mount anything outside the case, since you need as much SATA cables from the controller, as drives you have. And using SATA extenders is NOT advisable, due to unknown affects that chips inside extender have on data flow (unless it is all SAS drives because SAS is another thing because it is routable).

Nonetheless, having external drives in tower would need some case
and that brings us back to mounting drives in (bigger) PC case as better solution.
