My young friend is considering this

80GB External USB 2.0 Hard Drive - Design by F.A. Porsche Price :
$86.95
Is this the best she can get for this price or can she get a better
deal by using an enclosure + regular hard drive?
I don't have much experience in this topic so I appreciate advice.
Also, she's a young student so it shouldn't exceed the price of the
above for a budget; either as much *reliable* storage as she can get
for 80GB, or 80GB for as little as she can get them. Also, she's using
it for a laptop, but from what she told me it's not meant to be that
mobile, mostly for backup and video.
