We started using these for dumping down raw video at remotes and so far they have been flawless. Iomega has some home units that have been pretty well reviewed as well. Also look at Smallnetbuilder.com, they have reviewed quite a number of business/home NAS solutions.
Thanks - Drobo mini doesn't have ethernet.

Synology gets the edge in features.
Thanks for all the input, everyone.
