I am using one of these:
http://computershopper.com/reviews/antec-mx1-external-hard-drive-enclosure-review
which is fan-cooled. I have had good luck with it, but have not had it
all that long. It does both USB and eSATA. I am using eSATA and it is
as fast as a drive inside the box (as it should be).
I got this plus a 500-GB Seagate at Fry's for about $130, just a couple
of bucks more than the mybooks and ibooks, etc. of the world for the
same storage, but it comes with a fan.
