2 things:
-what type of connections it takes for the harddrive (IDE, sata, etc.)
-what type of connections it can output (usb, esata, sata, firewire)

Why even mention firewire? Thats the tool of the devil, and speaking of it is heresy.

Guys,

I feel like such a newbie, but i can't seem to find an enclosure to fit the internal i have. Here is the drive information:

Samsung SpinPoint P80 SP1614N - Hard drive - 160 GB - internal - 3.5" - ATA-133 - 7200 rpm - buffer: 8 MB

Thanks in advance for your help. I thought newegg had a tool to fit your hard drive, but i can't find that either :x
