Internal Hard Drive Enclosures

I'm looking for a 5.25"-sized enclosure for my hard drive for the purpose of noise reduction. Anyone have recommendations? I've seen a few for $30-$40, but that seems a little pricy.

Do you really want to add an enclosure with fans and such for NOISE reduction? Might look at External enclosures!

bad idea to run a hard drive on the same cale - for one just bandidth issues in general - but also older IDE controllers set the speed of each cable by the slowest device on there. So if the CD drive only supports DMA2 and your HD is DMA5 - you'll just b losing the speed.
