Today I saw few Toshiba portable 1TB HDD for just under 4k on ebay. Seagate was around 4.2k.

Do not buy the bulky 1TB HDD. Get the 2.5 inch portable ones.

Here's the thing about USB 3.0 .,. most HDD are just USB 3.0 compatible , you have to buy an additional USB 3.0 extender to enable USB 3.0 functionaity. Bear that in mind.
