Saw this on El Reg as an incoming item, seems to allow you to plug any SATA hard disk into a USB port, they even suggest plugging in 4 to a HUB to make a mega-pen drive! Apparently it will only cost around £18. Ok, so you can pick up similar things on ebay already but this looks a whole lot neater. I'd be interested to know if you need a power adapter too...
Cheers

You'll need a power supply and a case for the hard drive, but similar products have been available for quite a while - even Maplin sells them
