Hey guys
I have an unused 160 gb sata desktop hdd which I want to convert into an external hdd. So I just wanted to know what the enclosure would cost me and what should I be looking for in that enclosure.
I have not been able to find anything on the enclosures on the internet concerning indian prices.
Please help.

usually 400-450bucks but are really bulky. i'll suggest to go for a used 160Gb External HDD from Bazaar section here. thunder.dragon is selling one.
