External enclosure for an internal IDE HDD?

[TheVrolok]

Replaced the 80 GB IDE HDD in my DVR with a 400 GB one, so now I have a spare 80 GB IDE drive. Figured I'd just pick up an enclosure and store music on it for portability. Does anyone have any recommendations for an enclosure?

Just about anyone will do. Just make sure it has its own power source, and is USB 2 or Firewire.

NewEgg has some good ones - Vantec is excellent.

I tried one of these on a whim a while back and it works like a charm. It runs cool and is SATA and USB for a decent price.

Unf, MadAmos, that's for a 2.5" drive...

Vantec is usually a safe choice.
