Anyone know of a system to allow these to mount in a 3.5" enclosure? Its a 300 GB (WD3000BLFS - without icepack.

Icy dock says it won't work but the connections on the drive sure look standard to me.

Thanks!

Why not mount it in a 2.5" enclosure?

Plenty of 2.5" eSATA enclosures out there.

The connectors are the same and should line up vertically. For left/right/front you'll just have to pad the tray with some material.
