I got the 16GB SDHC cards for $20/ea (yes, I realize that the quality
may not be top-notch, but I'll risk it for now) - quite a bit less than
the 300 - 500 GB drives I was looking at.  Additionally, power
consumption will be lower, if only marginally so (yes, I realize that
HDDs are not the consumers of most of the power in a system).
