Slippahs, look at the fatwallet or slickdeals forums for a deal. There are tons. Here's one at buy.com for $109 all in for a 320 GB external drive, though IIRC they charge extra shipping to Hawaii:

When I lived in Honolulu I waited for a CompUSA deal (by monitoring fatwallet and slickdeals) and picked it up at their Ala Moana store. It's small by today's standards, but I got an 80GB CompUSA brand hard drive already in the enclosure for about $50 after rebate, IIRC. I sometimes found it easier to just suck it up and buy there rather than dealing with shipping.
