Recommendations for External HD enclosure?

[Mavimao]

I just switched from a powermac to a Macbook pro and I have a couple of SATA drives in the old powermac that I'd like to use on my laptop. Can anyone recommend a cheap/reliable enclosure?

Thank you!

This is the one that I just purchased:

Not a bad price, and it looks macish...

What size?

yeah that looks liek a 2.5" i could be wrong tho and it also doesn't come with the power cord. I just got one for about 25 bucks the brand it's smart-drive? doenst look like the best out there but from what i heard it's pretty reliable..

It is powered by twin usb. It would have been nice to get a power cord as well- but I am sure I have one around that will work.

Oops, sorry I should have specified. They are 3.5" drives.
