I've got the PiDrive on order and want to find a weather resistant (pocket size) hard case/enclosure for it. The case doesn't need any external connectivity. I'll just use it for a travel case. I would like something like the Pelican ...

So, I'm looking to get a pi with a large capacity of storage and basically only SATA devices have that feature so I want to know if it is possible to use sata off the gpio and use all of those 6gbps like I would be able to on normal SATA 3 (p.s. I don't want some massive expansion board either just...
