I need an external hard drive.

[iMsoLucky0]

I need an external hard drive for a few reasons. I only need it to be 20 or 40 GBs. I want the cheapest one available. I do not want to spend more than 60 on this.

Is this possible?

"Personally", I would go for an external enclosure and the IDE HDD separately. Two reasons:

1) Price is probably not going to be that far from an external HDD

2) You can upgrade to a larger HDD later on - they are always getting bigger and cheaper... and you can always install the old HDD as a slave in your PC too.

Is the ad wrong then because the ad that i see is for an "Iomega 80GB usb 2.0 external HD" for 59.99 + $20 MIR???

[Cubswin]

look under the online ad in the clearence section... the big red pages... not in the computer section... there is where you will find this gem (if its still in stock)....
