I have a WD Worldbook II and it has 2 x 500gb HDD's on a raid 1, it came in a nice WD case that has a fan to keep the drives cool . . . . I have it on our gigabit network switch as a NAS drive, the network port on the drives is gigabit ethernet, file transfers are soooo fast . . . very fuckin cool!

By two of whatever (Seagate, WD) and either RAID 1 them or make regular copies of the drive. (The WD I have is a 1TB, but it actually has two 500GB drives in it -- RAID 1 config).

1 TB is too much data to have on just one drive.

I've been using Western Digital exclusively for years now. I recently built a new machine with 5 1TB drives and I switched to Seagate because they had 32mb cache vs. WD's 16mb's.

Rock solid so far.
