    Reliable external IDE/USB box

    OK, resigned to the fact that a dual IDE external box is not available
    so ..... will someone recommend an external IDE/USB disk box (needs to be able to take a 500Gb drive) that doesn't suffer from data corruption or has an external power supply the size of a house brick?
