HDD Enclosure

What type of hard-drive enclosure should I use?

I am gutting an 11-year old pc and I am going to buy an enclosure for the 20gb hard drive and use it as an external. If I decided to do this (I will if the price of an enclosure is cheap) what kind of enclosure would I use. It is only 20gb and I will only bother with an enclosure if it is significantly cheaper than just getting a flash drive of the same capacity.

Hard drive specs:
* Maxtor Hard Drive
* Model:2B020H1 (541DX)
* 20.0GB Capacity
* 5400 RPM Spindle Speed
* UDMA/100 (IDE) interface
* 2MB Buffer
* < 12 ms average seek time
* Form Factor: Standard 3.5-inch
* Drive Only
