I currently run an external 2TB 7200RPM Quad interface to my 15" MBP (With 128SSD) via FireWire that holds my iPhoto library, iTunes library and large download folder.
To me one of the only down side to the 2TB external is the powerbrick needing to always be with the machine.
I still need 2tb of storage for the content I use, but havent seen any comparable 1TB hdds other than the 5200RPM WesternDigital 1TB, as the 1TB Toshibas in the Mercury elite config based on ratings are pretty lousy.

any thoughts or recommendations? thanks
