We have something similar for a cd-rom tower, and I assume the hard drive 
would be the same.  If you purchase a tower-style enclosure, it will most 
likely come set up with all the parts you need.  If not, ask the dealer you 
purchase it from, it can be set up easily.  The meat of it is that you have a 
thumbwheel on the enclosure, connected with (8 in our case) leads that cover 
all of the id jumpers.  The thumbwhell will then set the jumper, by 
shorting the correct pair of jumpers as per the id# dialed in.  The led is 
just a matter of connecting the leads from the hd to the led on the enclosure.
