Depending on your size of need. my early recommendation goes to western digital (WD) passport for buspowered (2.5" hdd and don't require external power brick). 160GB is $130 at your local costco. usb 2.0

if you need more than 160, look at WD My Book. At costco as well for a good price of $190. has usb 2.0 and firewire400
