I use one at work. I love it. Plus I work on a laptop, I dont use desktops at work or at home, so it works great for me when I have to do virus scans on hard drives or copy data over from a locked machine.

Newegg.com - Thermaltake BlacX N0028USU External Hard Drive SATA Enclosure Docking Station 2.5" & 3.5" USB 2.0

I have this one. It's very, VERY useful.

I have the BlacX also and it has been very useful. I like it better than the inclosures as I can just slap a different drive in. Really fast if you have the eSata card for your laptop or pc.

I use the BlacX, as well, actually, a couple of them.

I have both, they work well, then I found an old old computer with IDE and an IDE extension / RAID card. I stuck all my old drives in there, much easier
