Can anyone recommend a firewire 3.5" caddy for a SATA hard drive? My existing Safecom one appears to have blown the PSU (again) so my Time Machine drive is out of commission.

I've had a look around the interwebz and I can't find owt for under £60, which is silly money.

Please, no USB recommendations - has to be Firewire 400.
 
Paying less will get you crap your best of just buying a new hard drive in a caddy because the caddy is normally for people with spare hard drives which tends to be PC users, so they are USB mac owners don't normally pull their computers apart so theres less of a market.

I think some thing like the £100 mark would get you about 500GB FW400
 
Yeah, I still need to get the data off the existing drive. I'll go get a cheapo USB IcyBox to tide me over I think.
