External hard drive recommendation
I want to buy an external FW/USB2 hard drive with a reasonable capacity ?350mb. I figure that the most economical thing is to buy an enclosure and stick a hard drive in it rather than buy one already made up off the shelf with a brand name on it.

Three questions:
1) are all enclosures pretty much the same? I currently have a BlueEye O2 USB2 and it seems okay. Any recommendations?
2) any brands of hard drives that are good? any I should avoid?
3) what specs should I look for in a hard drive?
Thanks
