external hd case

[adams]

ok, i've got 2 60gb just laying around not being used for anything and I want one to be in an external case so it will be easier to transfer stuff from my laptop to my desktop.

i've looked and looked at them, but i have one question. the ones made for a 3.5" disk have just enough room for the disk and nothing else. the 5.25" ones have a small fan in them. Would it be better on the drive to get the 5.25" one so that the hd gets some air or will the 3.5" do?

Thanks.
