external hdd aren't that much. if you put it together yourself you can get an enclosure for $30 and a WD 250GB hdd for $55
Canada Computers - Hard Drive Enclosures > 3.5" Enclosures : Antec AC MX-100 Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure .
Canada Computers - Hard Drives > Desktop Drives > 3.5" SATA Drives : Western Digital Caviar (WD2500AAKS) 250GB SATAII 7200RPM 16MB Buffer (OEM).

for a while on my old system I was even installing games on a USB hdd drive, they played okay.
