Currently looking to acquire some more space, and I'm thinking external's a good option right now. Preferrably something that isn't too bulky, and I'm not really looking for anything bigger than 100GB right now, unless it's going pretty cheap.
Nah, no thanks, unless you're willing to match DSE's going price for the same item. I think they're at least $40 cheaper at DSE. Sorry if that seemed rude.I'm just being a cheap student.

That's a good deal, no worries, go with the cheapest :)
Lol, trust me (not trying to be racist), I'm Chinese, I know the Way of The Cheap. I'm Kiwi-born, but my parents grew up with great old Mao Zedong, so I'm constantly reminded.
It will probably cheaper if you buy an enclosure 2.5" or 3.5" depends on your hard drive dimension. From pricespy an enclosure cost about $8 to $10, a 2nd hand 40GB hard-drive probably about $50 more or less.
I don't know if my regular 2nd shop has its branch in other part of New Zealand. But here in Christchurch, they are having a stock clearance "Garage Sales" on the 24th. Computer Broker.
Alternatively, get some of your relative in China to send one over as a present
My flatmate has been reminding everytime I buy my IT gears that it is cheaper in China and she will get me one when she goes back. But she went back 4 times already, I haven't seen any IT gear she said she will get for me.
We'll never be too old to learn, and we learn at least one new thing every day.
