taulpaul, If you want to check out Newegg.com, they carry the Macally PHR-100AF External Firewire 400 hard drive enclosure for $34 (The USB 2/Firewire400 is an extra $5). They also carry the Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 "Perpendicular Recording" ST3250820A 250GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache IDE Ultra ATA100 Hard Drive for $75. So that's $115. Kick in $8 for 3 day UPS, it's a good deal.
