Guys,

I need to buy a bunch of cheap 5.25" External Enclosures (IDE) for some drives at work and was wondering if you knew of any places that sold them at a good price?

Thanks.

Not sure about cheapest, but I usually get that kind of stuff from newegg.com.

IDE.

Does Newegg offer volume discounts for large purchase orders? I didn't see anything about it on their site.

They also offer volume discounts. No 5.25" though. $:-\$

It seems like 5.25" enclosures are very hard to find these days.

As always, scour ebay. There isn't much I don't buy these days off there.
