    Go to buy.com and type Lacie IMO into the search box, and that will bring up a ton of discounted USB 2.0 and Firewire external Lacie hard drives. IMO is Lacie's refurbished line of external HDs. Use Google Checkout for $10 off any of the drives and it turns out to be quite an amazing deal.
    I just got a 250GB USB 2.0 Lacie Porsche HD for $51.99 shipped that way. They go for $100 new at Best Buy with tax. And to pay for it, I sold an off brand 120GB USB HD to some guy on my local Craigslist for $50, heh, I got the better deal there.
