What is a good SATA HDD enclosure

[TomKazansky]

So i got a POS external enclosure off of newegg for cheap, turns out to be a very bad move. This thing overheats all the time.

I'm looking for a good enclosure that supports USB2.0 externally, and uses SATA interface internally. eSATA external connection would be a plus as well. I've searched and no one seems to have given a good answer

Best Regards,

Take your pick from Cool Drives. I have one of these, and one of these. The first has swappable trays with 2 fans, and is noisy, but eventually, I'll get around to swapping the fans. The second one has a plastic case with a quiet fan. It gets warm, but nowhere outta pocket. We have an AnandTech review right here.
