guess it depends on your intended use... HD or SD and how many extenders/clients. until something better comes along it'd work really good for me.

This one is 7200:

$469, 1TB (drives included), USB2.0

No clue as to the quality of the drives (what's the use of 1TB if you lose data?), but it is encouraging to see the high capacity stuff becoming cheaper and more prevalent.
