I'm upgrading the HDD on my MBP, so I'd obviously like to put the old drive to use as an external drive. What cases do you guys recommend?

The big issue is that I'm in Australia, so all those American-only options aren't available (e.g. Newegg). I see that there's some dirt cheap ones on eBay, but are they any good? I think I'd primarily use it as a back up, so USB 2.0 is fine (FW 800 would be nice though if it's not $$$).

I've looked at OWC, and getting a basic USB 2.0 casing will end up costing around $55 inc. shipping, which is just stupid.
