in order to reuse one of my MBP drives.
I will use it for my FW400 iMac, but could buy the FW800 cable if need be, obviously.

I think I've got a FW400 to 2.5" IDE enclosure somewhere if you're interested.
Oh, you want to use it with SATA? Nevermind. g=

no, no SATA, using on an old iMac G4 as my music server.

ah, i need a SATA enclosure, yes, but not an external SATA.

If that G4 has USB 2, thats more than fast enough -- USB cases are $5, not $50...

no on the USB 2.0, which is why I need to use the FW port.

If you get that OWC version, you'll have to add a FW400 to FW800 converter cable, too. And maybe the AC power adapter.
