i only use 500GB on my NMT for internal storage - for downloading purposes or common videos to be played by my daughter and son (children's movies and Discovery Channel)

But most of the time i stream my videos in LAN usually in different computers which will have an access of 5Terabytes or more of network share resources.

I got a couple of WD 1TB externals with eSATA HD, 2x1.5TB in a duo-SATA HD case and 2x2x1TB in duo-SATA HD case. The eGreat itself is using a Seagate 1TB internal drive. So far, so good...

So far I'm using a 1TB WD My Book Home Edition.

I think Western Digital is one of the best HDD to use for NMT. Specially for Heat issues. Di masyadong mainit.

We're waiting for the WD 2TB internal drives. In the meantime, we have WD Caviar Green with 32mb (WD10EADS) in store for testing. Will see if it works flawlessly with ESATA.

I don't see a 2tb Studio Edition in WD's website. Is that a Studio Edition II? Please PM me the price.

I'm surprised no one here uses a NAS. I believe they're under 8k these days.

I believe the 8k doesn't factor in the cost of the hard drive yet. You also need to factor in the cost of setting up a network if you don't have one yet. Portable drives are still the best bang-for-the buck.
