[X4U] External HD Reliability?

[Zane H. Healy]

I'm curious if anyone has any comments about the reliability of 
external HD's, especially the Lacie, and Western Digital models.  I 
really need a couple external drives for photo vaults, and am trying 
to decide if I should buy something, or build something.
