External Hard Drive? (in Off-topic)

Anyone know where i could get a big external hard drive for dirt cheap?

i keep hoping the eBay auctions will quit for half of what they end at, but people don't seem to realize that when the base price is .99 and there's no reserve, they don't have to pay a hundred bucks because there are like, 20 more on the way the next day, every day.

...basically, i'm cheap :P what can i say. but, 50 bucks for like, a 160 GB or bigger would be incredible (and that's basically what i'm holding out for, heh)

Best I can do is this. 160 GB drive for $109.99.

I got a 160 GB hard drive for €100

but that was a LaCie hard drive modeled by the designers of porsche :)

Like it a lot, especially with the Universal Serial Bus 2.0 but still for $50 finding what you want, amazing :)

I usually check pricegrabber and froogle; pricewatch's search blows chunks.
