Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] firewire drive enclosure kits?

[Jason McIntosh <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I know they also have 3.5" drive enclosures, but with a 5.25" you can
use a CDRW if you want.  But, otherwise yes, use the drive rails ;)
Another note - I'm assuming these work with OS X, but that's one maybe
you'd better do more looking just to make sure.  I've seen enough stuff
that is "Mac" compatible, but won't work with OS X worth anything.
Cheers!
