I've been having a Maxtor 200GB in this Bytecc enclosure:

I've since picked up another 200GB drive from Western Digital. So, I wanted a new enclosure to hold both of the drives and provide proper cooling, all while not taking up too much room.

I'm currently using this enclosure from Coolgear:

I must say that I'm very impressed with it.

Here it is in action:

I got my mouse in there for size comparison...

I like the look of those things. This one will definitely be bookmarked. probably too late to ask for it for Christmas :)
 
very nice, i have bookmarked it as well, and will be looking into getting one of those very soon. Thanks.
 
wow, I really like the second one. Very sleek!

I'll be ordering one of these soon.

Thanks
 
A few questions for the OP:

Is the fan quiet?

Are you using USB? They also make one with FireWire.

Is each drive its own drive letter, since it's not a RAID device?

I've already got a pair of external enclosures from CompUSA using Firewire 400, and I love them. But I might get this dual drive enclosure. It looks awesome!
