I want to buy a casing which has both eSATA and USB 2.0 connectivity.
Suggest some brand and also the approximate price.
Will the power adapter be provided with the casing? Are USB Y type cables enough to power a 3.5" drive?

Are the chinese casings good? (I wont be moving the drive around, it will be in one fixed place)

By the way, will I be able to connect a PATA drive to the casing or will I have to buy another converter cable or separate casing for that? I have a 5year old PATA drive lying around.
 
The Sunbeam Airbox for Rs1750 @ PrimeABGB is pretty unbeatable. eSATA and USB2.0. I use it for my 1TB Seagate 7200.12 and it keeps the HD cooler than my rig =/.

As for Chinese cases, my dad bought one for an IDE HD and it doesnt really function all that well. Keeps disconnecting and everything.
 
Do the Tech Com and ENTER casings suffer from the same disconnection problems?

In a casing which has been made for SATA drives, can I insert and use a IDE drive?
