i'd recomend a internal but if you do not have space inside you can always look for a Maxtor external :P or you can just buy a internal and a external case :P

the Maxtor's are really good(they can take alot of dammage xP i droped one 5 storries, it still works as a charm ^^)
sizes i'd go for a 250 -> 400 gig (500 is so expensive yet :P)

Maxtors get some real ****ty reviews though lol

I mean some companies rate it decently high, but some of the bad reviews are kinda scary...

For example:

"I bought this 6 months ago and used it maybe three times. I used the drive to store Photoshop images to make room on my Mac. Yesterday I went to get my images and the found the drive had only a blinking blue light. I talked to Maxtor and was told ... Read more >it had crashed , they will send me a new one but the only option to get my images was to pay $500-$1,000 for data recovery. "

And there were a few other similar stories of Maxtors crashing without the ability to regain the lost files.
