    Hi,

    I remember someone posting a website where you can buy a black IBM external hard drive enclosure but I can't find that post again. Does anybody know where I can buy this enclosure? I checked ebay but the few that they have there will cost me $50+.

    Thanks,
    Plat

    Wouldn't any decent 2.5" enclosure work just as well or are you looking for something that matches you IBM?

    I know any brand will work but if I could get the IBM one that matches my T61 for a reasonable price I would prefer that one :cool:

    @ Rambo: Thanks but looks like that site won't work for me, I'm in Canada and they only ship in the US
