Default External 1.8" 5mm HDD box anywhere?

As my MP3 player died I've decided to strip the hard drive out.

Can't seem to find a external case that works with 5mm thick drives though.

Anyone's googlefu working better than mine?

You'll be lucky.

You can get 'em for 2.5in (laptop sized), but never seen anything smaller.

You can get 1.8" cases for 9.5mm and 12.5mm drives - not seen any for 5mm though.

Arse.

How thick are iPod drives? My mate has a busted one in his bits box.

Dunno. The drive is the only bit that survived in my iAudio.

However - a 30gb pocket sized usb hdd would be very usefull for me.
