External backup drive question.

[meagain]

I replaced my 3 year old Maxtor 80GB with a Seagate 120GB. More than enough
space for my needs.
My question: Is there an enclosure available where I can make the Maxtor a
USB 2 external drive?
I've read of such a thing a while back but I'll be damned if I can find one
now.

Thanks
Rick

perhaps you're not searching very well - there are IDE/PATA external
housings for 3.5" hard drives everywhere that use usb, firewire, or both.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:

Sorry for my lapse of reason and thanks for the replies.
Newegg has a shitload of them.
