    I need to take 2 WD 1 TB Caviar Green drives and put them in external enclosures. I'm leaning towards an aluminum case sans fan so I won't have to worry about fan noise. I do worry about keeping the drives cool. Can anyone recommend a good aluminum case that really does keep the drive reasonably cool? Of course, they all say they do. I would be open to a case w/fan if the fan is quiet.

    Thanks.
