almost any 3.5 enclosure will work, there are myriad to choose from.

What you need when looking is the proper interface, USB, ESATA, 1394, thunderbolt, etc.
whatever interface you need, there will be a case for it. 3.5 inch drives have not changed much in 15 years.

I've always had good luck with Inland devices. Get one that's USB 3 compatible if you have USB 3 ports. That makes a good bit of difference in performance.

Good luck.
