internal HDDs are cheaper, and I like this one.

You just need a 3.5" drive enclosure. You can pick them up at Intrex for about $30 or Tigerdirect for about $20. They should come with all of the cables you need.

It's a shame Best Buy doesn't still have the 500gb Western Digital drives for $149

all you need is an enclosure, but I would sugest the venus line.
