AmesMUG: Drive Enclosures

[Brandon Newendorp]

It's a bit of work to get it out, yes, but I've always preferred  
having a larger internal drive than dealing with an external drive.   
So much more convenient.  The enclosure below would be nice for your  
current internal drive, since it gives you USB 2.0 and eSATA (which  
is much faster, but you'd have to buy an eSATA ExpressCard for your  
MacBook Pro).  Always good to have eSATA for the future.
