Heat and ability to replace are reasonable reasons to keep PSUs
external, although I've never experienced one of this new, lightweight
PSUs fail. External enclosures are sleek, until I have to lug around
that brick with its cables, which ends up taking more volume than the
drive. I'm sure that if I designed my own little enclosure, sticking
the PSU to the case would be the first thing I'd do.
There's nothing that supports 1394 but not USB, but somehow all 1394s
offer daisy-chaining and no USBs offer extra ports, and not all
computers have an abudance of either.


Anyway, all this went totally off-topic... I was asking for specific
MODELS that you'd recommend from your experience.
