Does anyone know a place to get a cheap external HDD enclosure for the 20 gig HDD I swapped out of my PS3? I ordered the following one from Tiger Direct, but it did not fit my old HDD.

Sabrent Slim 2.5" (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1086960&CatId=0)

I'd like to use it as a backup drive for my music files and PS3 game saves.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There must be SOME kind of external hard drive enclosure that fits my old 20gb PS3 drive! Anyone??? Thanks!

Does it have to be in an enclosure? I'm surprised it wouldn't fit in that enclosure you bought, but you can just get a SATA->USB adapter cable from newegg or ebay

i got one on ebay for $2. You gotta find someone who doesn't rip you off in shipping though.

Put it in some tupperware :P

Seriously....spending $$ on an enclosure for a 20gb drive? C'mon.....

Can you maybe share the link to your auction, in case the seller has more?

It looks like Newegg has a million of them, but can anyone add any tips that would help us find one that fits?

I see what you're saying. Being a non-techie, I guess what you're saying is I could just get a cable. What sort of cable would I need to connect this to a USB port?

Thanks!

Something like this. Any USB->SATA adapter

So anyone find a decent enclosure yet? Finding one that is cheap, looks good, and supports the PS3 (sata) hard drive is getting hard. Newegg only has four cases (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Category=9&N=2000090092+1053807124+1054107131&Submit=ENE&SubCategory=92) that will work starting at $29.99. Ebay has one, that isn't that great and costs almost $30 shipped.

This is probably the best I've found so far. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817392009) So much writing on it though. Guess I could paint it.
