External Enclosure for MacBook hard drive...

[D34th]

My friend fried everything but the hard drive on his MacBook and is getting a new one. I now have the hard drive from it and want to get an external enclosure for it. What is a decent enclosure? I searched and did not find much...Thank you.

most enclosures are fairly basic - all you need is an enclosure for a 2.5" Sata drive. try compusa if you've one near by.

macsales.com has a few good ones as well. Here's one example:

Jeez.. $90 for an enclosure?

There are plenty to be found in the $25-$30 range. I'm planning on getting this one:

Firewire+USB is better than USB only
