any recommendation on the best value & best looking, also of course perform well enclosure for the swapped out HD from Macbook?
at octagon megamall last night, i saw this aluminum 2.5 enclosure with esata and usb2 going for about P1T (forgot the brand). for looks, their interesting enclosure is a black vantec usb2 for about the same price. they look like these
here's my suggestion.. unless you're planning on transferring large files or a big batch of files (100gb and up) i'd say save on the enclosure and get one with USB 2.0 you won't be dissappointed. now if your plan is to constantly be transferring files of gargantuan proportions then firewire or esata would be your best bet, however macbooks don't have esata ports yet so fire wire it is
