I have 3 IDE DVD burner drives that I'd like to put into external
enclosures.

Anybody know of any deals on this sort of thing, in the neighborhood of
~$15 each, shipped? Thanks!
 
problem with that is going to be, IF you find one for that cheap, its likely NOT to have a
cooling solution,,,,not good!

And just to add to that...

I was looking at pictures of an enclosure tonight. And it had one of
my pet peeves. They put a fan on the back of the unit. But
there is no air intake... So the fan cannot do a hell of a lot
but swirl the air around.

The last time I got screwed on one of those enclosures, I went
down the basement, got out the electric drive, and did a "Swiss Cheese"
pattern on the bottom of it :-) Gets plenty of cooling now.
And you cannot see the holes from the outside.
