That's good news about the new audiophile drive enclosures.

In the past, I had one with a loose mounting screw from shipping. 30 seconds with a screwdriver fixed it.

The fans were relatively noisy, but I always take the drives out of the enclosures, anyway, and mount them in my machine to an empty SATA port. If you don't have that (such as in a HP or Dell stripped-down desktop), another possibility is to use a BlackX adapter from Thermaltake.
