Recommended External Drive for iTunes

Can anyone recommend a good 2-3 terabyte external drive to be attached either to Mac Mini or Network and to hold all my current and future iTunes media ??

I have 500gb already and dont want to use up the entire Mac Mini drive

I have been using a Western Digital 3TB drive for about 3 months now ( upgraded from a 2TB other make ) and have had no issues. It is quiet and reliable and fast enough sending movies to ATV over LAN that I don't notice any delays.


Sometimes it will sleep but wakes upon accessing a movie.... the movie starts playing after a few seconds buffering.


No complaints.
