Hi, I'm looking to get a small gift for a friend. He lives in a dorm, and can't have any large electronics (such as a tv or desktop pc). He does have a laptop and smartphone, and he uses them alot (especially the laptop). On his laptop, he plays games, does work, web surfs, install programs/linux, etc. He likes cars, and has a model car. My budget is $20 Canadian (I'm not willing to spend much - I'm a student too)I can't seem to think of many gifts for him. Location: Vancouver, Canada
So far, this is what I've thought of:
-Portable hard drive: He always runs out of space on his laptop hdd. I already have an enclosure from ebay (cost $4), and I may be able to get a 400-500gb 2.5" internal hdd for ~$23. Expensive though.
-Second hard drive: 2nd hard drive caddy in the optical drive from ebay ($6) + 400-500gb hdd mentioned previously. Problem: He uses his optical drive alot.
-Used xbox 360/ps3. Problem: expensive and he may not be allowed to keep it (I'm asking him now).
-DIY car model. Where can I get this and how much should a ok one cost?
-Gaming mouse: He's satisfied with his current one though.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
