I have a ReadyNAS NV+ and love it. True it was expensive, around $1000 with 4 x 500GB drives when I bought it 2 years ago. But since then I've expanded it with 4 x 1.5TB drives, nice and cheaply and the expansion was automatic and simple. RAID 5 is great, performance over the network is fine (streaming HD WMV's to the 360), control via a browser are comprehensive. It serves to my Xbox360, and PS3 as well as everything else on my network including iTunes. It's the size of a football, sucks only about 25W, is quiet and cool and comes with free backup software for your client PC's.
