Default Best newegg HDD for the money?

I' need some help finding a suitable HDD for gaming, i'm going to be storing many games on it, but i doubt i'll ever need over 300-350 GB. What's the most i should be spending on one of these? And also, could you link me to a newegg.com link to the best bet for my money? thanks.

If you can see this, you have WAY TOO much time on your hand. Or you're a mod going through my sig. But if you do, copy and past this in your sig.

Wrong, you don't think you'll need it till it happens and believe me 300gb isn't that exaggerated best buck hdd would be 250 and 320gb like these

320gb

250gb

As long as you have somewhere to connect it, yes.
