I prefer IBM/Hitachi drives myself.  Here is a 80GB one for only $58.50:

But for only about $20 more ($81.50) you can have a high performance 
120GB Hitachi (and this is what I would go for):

120GB and 250GB drives are currently at the sweet spot of the storage 
market.  They are a much better value than other size drives right now.
