It's close on the cheap end, but if you can get that USB to SATA/IDE cable for less than $20, then you could pay less for an internal than an external.

Tigerdirect.ca listings show that a cheap internal is about $45-55 CAD. A cheap external is $70-75 CAD.

If you compare prices of the most expensive/large drives: 1TB internal hard drive by Samsung is $304.99, a Kanguru BioSTOR 400GB USB 2.0 External Hard Drive with 40 Bit DES Encryption runs you up to $487.99 CAD.

I'd say that $325 is still cheaper than $490, despite needing to buy that adapter.

Indeed.

I've also been using it with my 360.  Mass Effect looks niiiiiiiice on it.

I want to eventually get a second one to replace my CRT.  I think it would just barely fit.

$550.

It has HDMI, DVI, and VGA ports, so you can even hook cable (or a Blu-Ray player or whatever) into it if you have an HD-capable cable box.  I plan to do that eventually.

1920x1200, same as my laptop (albeit a lot larger and brighter).

It looks completely ridiculous when you lock in 640x480 or some other low resolution.
