Yo, Mo.
Whats up?
I just received my ST Lab 3.5" external case. I bought it for me laptop but I tested it on the MPC to check things out and I must tell, it works like a charm!
Its a lot cheaper then real USB drives but be carefull, its still a IDE HD wich can be broke quickly.. So dont move the 3.5" case if ya dont need to!

You can even connect the case to the MPC and your pc at the same time. (mine has 1x USB and 2x firewire):D

But I guess every brand will do just fine. As long as you dont fit in a Maxtor IDE HD.
Go for Western Digital, Samsung. Those work fine here.
