Geek I am impressed with your statement to use a 7805, he can also use a 7812 to get his 12V, but will definately need to heat sink it. HD will pull some good power. Personally, I'd just go with a bare enclosure and already provided PSU. I have never had an issue with the PSU's that come with external HD kits.

    I just got my old power supply that had idee power and sata power and rigged a switch to the  pins 15 and 16 on the 24-pin atx motherboard power connector to turn power on and off and i can power ide or sata drives and turn the thing on and off.
