Hey guys,

I'm looking to buy a new HDD enclosure that has a couple of features.

1) Single Drive
2) USB 2.0
3) Fan/fans
4) HDD must be removable or ejectable

I'm not really looking for a dock, I wanted something completely enclosed if possible.

thanks

An option would be to get a standard enclosure, then also get a standard removable hard drive kit that you install in that enclosure. Perhaps find an enclosure that has a security slot so you can install one of those standard kensington-style cable locks to secure the enclosure to a solid object so someone doesn't walk away with the enclosure taking the locked hard drive with it.

Example that might work (substitute your favorite enclosure/removable frame):

I'm really hoping for something a bit simpler. I can't believe that no one has this. I got a Consus HDD enclosure from Frys a while back, but the fans went out...I'm thinking I might just do on Ugly mod and work it that way. Hello Dremel where are you?
