Default EIDE - IDE .. Is there a difference????

Hi folks,

I am looking for an USB2.0 enclosure for a maxtor 3.5 inch ATA/EIDE 250 GB
drive.

The ones that i see on the net only say IDE and not EIDE. Is there a
difference. I want to use the drive through USB interface.

thanks

IDE is an old standard, it's very unlikely that any external drive enclosure
doesn't support EIDE drives, I'd suspect that you are just dealing with
clueless websites ;-)
