I've got two internal drives (1 ATA, 1 SCSI) from G4's that I'm thinking of stuffing into an external drive case to rescue the data, since both G4s have died on me.

Can someone point me to a source for the fw external enclosures? Seems to be running about $150.00 any better? Thanks.

I don't know about that SCSI drive. Most of the Firewire cases I've seen are for ATA drives.
