You can just get one of those external HD casings really cheap and buy any size hard drive you want.

Buying the enclosures separately will enable you to save on costs. There are enclosures for 3.5" and 2.5" hdd's. I used my old PC's hdd with a USB, external powered enclosure (see below, pic #1). I also used an old laptop hard drive along with a 2.5" USB enclosure (bus- or external powered). I suppose the firewire-based devices should be a little bit snappier vs. the USB 1/2 versions.

In the office I have a USB 2.0, RAID (0-1-5; cold-swappable)-enabled SOHO-type external enclosure like the one pictured below (#2; manufactured by Fastora). A solution for SOHO backup redundancy needs. The disks can also be configured as JBOD, so you will end up with three disks up to 900 g total capacity.

CF-based hard drives are also coming along, but still expensive IMHO. I don't have any of these to go with my PDA, but one is pictured below (a magicstor).
