I had a pair of Pelican cases that I attached to my crashbars using u-bolts—quick and dirty, my motto. They locked, were waterproof, and did a great job of protecting my legs when I dropped the bike in a parking lot (for purely research purposes, of course). As a bonus, they provided some extra real estate for stickers when I filled up my rear panniers and top box.
The negatives are obvious: bulky, heavy, hard to mount and dismount, etc.
