I have a 1TB Lacie that I use only for storage, got for around $100 CDN. Works great.

Preferably Gigbit Ethernet which is wired only. I doubled my transfer rates to my (slow) NAS by migrating it to my gigbit network socket and upgrading the cable to category 6 - albeit as I use it as a backup device I need as fast a transfer as I can get.

Personally, I don't trust any drives any more since they started taking out the fans -- I'm going to get one of those clip-on the shelf fans to cool them.


I only ever run hard drives in cooler caddies such as this to keep them nice and cool.
