I was looking for some Hard Drive Enclosure with eSATA and came across this one on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Power-Over-eSATA-USB-eSATAp-2-5-HDD-Enclosure-USB2-0-/280710046930?_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D2%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D1690357399782344954#ht_4122wt_1274
it seems to provide power over eSATA but I have not heard of this brand called Shentek. Any idea about the quality.
Also, will it make big difference in terms of reliability and life of hard disk if I get a cheap metallic enclosure instead of a costly one.
