Hi all.New to forum.So be nice to me

Heres my first Q: i am thinking of putting a case together to house,lets say ten of my EIDE HDD's and chain them together to act as one large Drive.
Is this possible?is this what a server is?if so,what do i need to accomplish this.A server case with a power supply of what wattage?,and what else would i need.and how and where would i find the ribbon cables to "Chain" them together?
Is this even possible?
Thanks for your Replies...Lerch
