Hello all. I need a 3.5" external enclosure, but trying to pick one out is incredibly confusing. In random comments I see people talking about different chipsets (NEC vs. Oxford, etc.) and such, but nowhere can I find someone pointing to a good one to actuially buy. All I want is the following:

1. As small as possible and can still hold a 3.5" drive.
2. Fast. Apparently this means I'm looking for an Oxford . . .
3. Supports ATA/133 i.e. 250gigs+
4. Laptop style switching AC adaptor, no wall wart!
5. USB 2.0 absolutly a requirement, but I'll drop $10-$15 more for firewire as well.

This really shouldn't be that hard to find considering i'm willing to drop $50-$60 if I have to, but yet it is. Can someone point me in the right direction?
