    I have this hard drive from a computer. It is a seagate u6 model ST320410A 20gb drive. Would I be able to use it as an external drive on my other computers, if so what case would work?

    I've always had decent success with IcyBox IB-351 enclosures, but they're not available in all countries I don't think.

    Do I need a certain type of enclosure for it? This is the first time taking a hard drive out and enclosing it.

    All you need is one that adapts IDE drives to a USB interface. They're in abundance.
