128GB fills up quickly. A 1TB 5400RPM 2.5" drive is $45-50 on pricewatch.

1TB HDDS are generally the most expensive. At such a low capacity it makes more sense to just get a 500GB SSD for $50. Alternatively if you really need the capacity of an HDD: for just $90 you can get a 3TB HDD. triple the capacity, less than double the price.

Edit: Apparently 3TB HDDs cost as low as 60€ nowadays...

Pricewatch is still around? I used it back in the early 2000s but forgot about it.

For EU prices also check https://geizhals.eu/ they got acquired by Heise Gruppe some years ago and are my goto-service for model comparison and extended filtering, also very useful outside EU. Haven't seen a comparable service yet for US with price trend and consistent feature tagging.
