I think you can do better,

You can get the 250GB Lacie on the same site, its just a few quid more. 250GB is the 'sweet spot' at the moment, I'd say.
I have that one: no complaints, no probs on mac or pc. Very small and quiet.

Yeah, the Western digitals are always supposed to be good, can't go wrong with them either (well, unless you find someone who had some horrid unlucky problem...). Cache is bigger on the ones olly found. Anyway, I am pleased with the lacie.
