what really matters is the material , aluminum is very good at heat disposal, plastic is very bad at that field , a fan will help to cool it down a bit too but its not a must

I like this one

me too , theres also the firewire+usb version for bit more

I have a Venus Enclosure, Its aluminum, it also has a fan within it, It does get hot but only if I am copying alot over to it for an hour or more..
