I save around $70, which will buy me a 250 GB hard drive at Fry's...so I've basically got a 160 GB hard drive for free (depending on how you look at it).

The real idea, is that I was planning on getting a smaller sized external USB 2.0 hard drive for my girlfriend's iTunes (she just got her first Mac laptop and is ripping her 700+ CD collection).

So now, I can used the saved money to get the 250 gig hard drive, take the 160 and put it in a $30 USB 2.0 enclosure...and be a hero! :)

The harddisks in the Mac Pro are SATA. Can you buy an external USB enclosure that will accept a SATA drive?
