Unless it's a laptop drive you'll need an external power supply.
I have two of the cheap CompUSA aluminum enclosures and could not be
happier with them.

Hi,
I need to get an external enclosure for a 500GB drive. I haven't got the
drive yet so it could be IDE or SATA I'm flexible. I do prefer not to
have an external power supply but that's not a hard constraint.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance,
