Ok, I've been thinking about getting an external harddrive for a while now, my laptop only has 30G, which really sucks cause I have many games that I like, but can't store any movies or much of anything if I have all the games on, especially once my girlfriend puts the Sims2 on, it takes a tenth of my harddrive by itself.

So here is my question, what is the max storage I could get for under a 100 dollars, and will I need to install an OS on it or will it just act like another memory source where I can just click and drag stuff onto it? I wouldn't think I'd need an OS on it but I just want to make sure.

Thanks in advance for any info.
