[QUOTE="ArmyChief, post: 467987, member: 33127"] I just installed a new 250GB drive in my MacBook. I bought an external enclosure from Newegg.com. I got the IcyBox IB-250 2.5" USB enclosure for $24.99. It was so easy. I snapped in my old 80GB drive (SATA interface), tightened up 4 screws, and plugged it into a USB port. My MacBook picked it up right away. No power cord is needed, although there is a USB-to-DC adapter cord in the box. The enclosure is snug-fitting and lightweight, has two LED lights and a power switch. Can't beat it for the price!! When I get home, I'll try to post some pics for you. Better yet, here is the [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817714011&Tpk=icybox%2bib-250"]newegg link[/URL]. William [/QUOTE]
