There's a bunch of 2.5" SCSI "pocket size" enclosures going for cheap
on eBay and I figured with a reasonably-priced 2.5" drive I could cut
down on both the noise and the desk space of my big ol' full-size
enclosure. However, at $180+ for the drive alone, I might as well just
get an IDE or CFFA set up...

BTW, 2.5" SCSI drives were the standard in the 1xx-series
PowerBooks...
