That's a nice write up thanks. That enclosure however only supports up to 250GB though :-( Newegg have a lot of enclosures and I think that FAQ gives me enough info on the chipsets to make a semi informed decision.

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?
