Favorite Firewire Enclosures?
I will be picking up a 1ghz 17" Powerbook later this week, and need to start looking around for enclosures. I took a look around at Newegg and saw a couple I sort of liked, but I don't think I found what I wanted. I really would like something made of aluminum and that looks simple. (I already have the drive). So what are some of your favorite enclosures? Firewire 800 would be nice but not necessary. I do like the one I saw here-

And it is dual drive. But right now just looking for a single drive solution.

I've got a couple of ADS Pyro enclosures that work/look fine, but I'm sure you can find cheaper enclosures.
WiebeTech have some really nice (but pricey) ones too.
Good luck!
You could try the MacPower products, they are cool and quite cheap.

This and the Porsche drive enclosures are my favorites. However, this one is 180 dollars! I think the Firewire 400 version of this is still 130. When I was looking around the site, I saw they make this case-

It is quite expensive at any of the online stores that I have seen. But then it is the same thing as this one at OWC-

So does OWC simply rebrand their stuff and sell it for cheaper? I sure would like to find the Pleiades for cheaper, there is no way I can justify paying 180 dollars for an enclosure.
