☆ENGLISH ONLY☆コミュのPC parts (cheapest place to buy)

I need to buy an external SATA hard drive enclosure for my laptop. Where is the best site in Japan to buy them from. I went to Yamada Denki but they cost 3700 yen there. Where can i get one cheaper at?

If cost is the issue, go to Akihabara, pick a small store, and tell the guy what price you were offered somewhere else. If he offers better, either take it, or take his price to the next store down the line.

That said, getting the absolute best price isn't always the best idea with computer components. (Not that a drive enclosure is going to go bad on you, but...)

But is there not a website I can order from?

If you read Japanese, KAKAKU.COM will help you to find an external HDD.

55Cyanides,

I am assuming the OP lives in Japan. Newegg.com is a great site, but I don't think they ship overseas. :-)

(BTW I also use zipzoomfly.com.)

Yea i need something here in Japan. Also it needs to be able to take the 100v/120V because I am going back to America in a year.

If you are looking for an external drive for your laptop PC, I believe the one you are looking for is a one that can be carried with the PC. In that case, it only requires USB cable connection and the power is provided through the USB cable so that you do not need worry about the AC voltage difference.

No. I have a 3.5 inch 500GB SATA drive I need an enclosure for. The usb ones are for 2.5 inch smaller drives.

I am terribly sorry.
I somehow read "an external SATA hard drive enclosure" as "an external SATA hard drive"
I believe most of external HDD enclosures sold in Japan are made in China and designed to work for 117V AC environment.
I read user reviews at KAKAU.com and found there were so many people who had problems with cheap HDD drive enclosures, like:
- Wrong screw size
- Power supplies were broken in a few months
- Connected HDDs were not recognized

I can't say which one to purchase...
