External USB2/Firewire Enclosures

michaeljclark · 03-08-2004, 09:35 AM

Right guys, I've done the research, found 2 external 3.5" HDD cases, the problem is that I cannot find a UK supplier for them.

We use ComputaCentre in the UK for all our hardware stuff, and even they CAN'T find the following two items on general release in the UK

ComputaCentre said they could be found in the Applestore but I couldn't find them.

I suppose I'm looking towards UK ABXers on this one, but any help would be great

Different company and units, but they do ship internationally, and I have several of their enclosures, they work perfectly:

Thanks PCBruiser, I have a query in with MacPower, but I have found a UK supplier (www.yellowtechology.co.uk) for your stuff

I don't know if Newegg.Com sells overseas or not but I just got this case and it works great, looks good too....

No they only ship within US and Puerto Rico

As a matter of interest PCBruiser, which one(s) do you have, I'm looking at either the Fire800 or the UltraGB

Thanks everyone for their suggestions
