BAM!
only with usb
@timta2: I'm considering buying just the enclosure, I have a few 2.5" drives lying about, and finding a decent enclosure has been tough, they're all crap and expensive. Only the most expensive support FW800 too (I already have an expresscard in the slot, so I'd rather not use eSata, as I'd have to swap them about I imagine).
