i have two 1TB external hard drives......thats 2k plus MB...you prolly wont need that much..but all the advertised external's are pretty good...both mine are seagate and havent had any problems with either of them...i dont know a whole lot but you can pick up a 250mb from most electronic stores for like $50 and that should be more than sufficiant...

I would find the most storage you can get for your money...there are several companies waging a war for your dollar. If you want to invest in the future, I would get no less than 1TB, which can be had relatively inexpensively these days. One other thing I would recommend is redundancy...basically using 1/2 of your storage capacity to create a backup of your data. It may sound like an unnecessary expense now, but you should weigh that against the alternative of a complete loss of your data. I consider it the digital equivalent of a safety deposit box.

There were a few good deals on 500gig hard drives in the Ebay Daily Deals lately, try looking for them in the forum.

I would look into SSD Drives as an OS drive then get 2 1TB each and raid them together killer setup.
