Great Enclosure

macally PHR-250CC Aluminum 2.5" IDE USB & 1394 External Enclosure

Pros: Excellent enclosure, very solid feeling with the metal shell. Easy to install the hard drive and it comes with all the cables you need; plus a black slip cover for it. Dimension-wise it is the perfect fit for my bag and to carry with me.

Cons: The blue light is rather seizure-inducing.

Solid Drive

Pros: Fast, solid hard drive. I've had zero problems/issues with it over the past year, very quick and responsive. And it is really not that loud.

Cons: Was worth the money a year ago, which was about the same as it is now. WD should really drop the price on this.

Overall Review: Buy larger capacity Raptors if you have the $. 36GB is small, I need another for RAID.
