i'll bump this.
i have been looking at the 2tb d2 quadra

I wonder when the thunderbolt drives will come out? And (obv) the thundervolt hub / adapters.

I just bought the Quadra Design for my 2011 Mac mini (When it is announced). Awesome design, works perfectly.

Don't know what else I should say? Except maybe, take the 2TB version, since it is much cheaper, when it comes to MB/$.

No platter-based hard drive is more or less reliable than any other. Buy the hard drive with the best warranty. If that's a LaCie... buy the LaCie. They don't make their own drives anyway; they just stick them in enclosures.
