I think I may need a new one. First off, does anyone sell bare LaCie hd cases and if I can't find any, what's a good "mac like" hd case? I've scoured New Egg and haven't found anything that I really like.

Which LaCie case(s) do you like the looks of?

This white polycarbonate case from Newegg looks Apple-like to me.

I really like that case, but I need something with firewire.

I had one of these guys:

I have one of the Rosewill USB/Firewire 400 cases. It's aluminum, with a PowerMac G5/"cheese grater" look. Looks great next to my PowerBook, and I haven't had any technical problems with it. I bought it from New Egg.
