Looking for a cheap HD

I have an old intel system that I want to setup to run Boinc. I need a Hard drive of about 5 gigs or more.

The cheapest the bestest. Anyone have any online places that sell cheap drives or used drives?

local ma and pa shop might have some of those smaller HD's you are looking for. if you want a 2gb, i got one you can have if you pay shipping. got a couple of 1gb ones as well. i know its less, but then, it costs less too
