I have that fan controller and you cant get any better for the price.

If you dont have a card ready you can get a pretty sweet looking one from nMEDIAPC with USB 3.0

Rather than a fan controller, I'd probably go with a SATA Hot Swap Drive Cage. Add in a RAID controller and three good sized hard drives for a nice (and redundant) RAID5 Array.
