Thomas, I believe the enclosure you're talking about is the Coolmax model HD-227-U (www.coolmaxusa.com); the more recent version, HD-227-U2, is currently for sale by Newegg.com, for $39. Newegg also sells the similar firewire version, HD-227-FW, for $41. I had considered these products, but was hesitant. It's good to hear your recommendation for these USB enclosures!
I had become cautious, and for good reason. See the (sold) Ebay item #3405561809 where the seller was quite candid with her horrible experience with a particular USB enclosure, many of which are to be found up for sale at auction! --Jim.
