    1. [COMPUTERS] Integral Enclosure
    2. David Railton
    3. I have a Freecom 500gb external hard drive model SSPAG with 3.5 in drive and USB connection connected to my desktop pc. I now want to connect my external hard drive wirelessly to my wireless laptop and wired pc. I understand that what I need to do this is to put my ehd inside a USB NAS enclosure. I have purchased an Akasa AK-ENP2NDAS-BLUK USB 2.0 and LAN Integral Enclosure for 3.5 inch IDE HDD. I now realise that this is not the right piece of equipment as it is not SATA compatible with my current ehd and am sending it back to the supplier. Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced and efficient enclosure that will be compatible? David

    3. David, I assume you already have a wireless router. Connect a Cisco-Linksys NSLU2 to the network, and it will allow you to use your existing usb drive. It has 2 ports, so you could connect a printer also.
