You most likely don't have USB 2. Only the most recent motherboards have it onboard. Whatever you do, do not get a usb 1.1 hard drive. It will be painfully slow. Definitely go USB 2 or Firewire.
There is also a third option. You can buy a usb2/firewire enclosure and stick a normal ide drive in there and make it an external.

Link 2
The first one only supports 3.5 drives so you might want to get the second one even though it inly supports usb 2.
