Hey!
I have a Western Digital Scorpio Blue 250GB hard drive just laying around and I'm looking to buy an external enclosure for it. I will most likely be hooking it up to a mackbook pro, so I'll need something thats compatible with macs. Any suggestions?
I'm looking for something less than $40
Thanks!

When looking for a external case for your drive look for a 2.5" SATA drive case because that is what you drive is
This will connect to USB on your p.c/mac
You can format it on your mac to an apple file format or have in the FAT32 file format and it will work on both windows and MAC
Look at http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m570.l1313&_nkw=2.5+sata+external+case&_sacat=See-All-Categories or the equivalent where you live or

Well Data Robotics has one that holds 4 drives
http://computers.pricegrabber.com/enclosures/m/39265406/
or the IcyDock

Then there are many "stackable" units which allow you to just continue to stack remote drives.

Buffalos Terra Stations and Drive Stations are really nice, if you don't mind the price.

Just check external hard drive enclosures and look for multiple drives.
