How much is it Jason?
There is another option. Get a Linksys network link and hook up an external harddrive to it.

why not consider a building a home NAS ?
A barebones kit
2 x 500Gb drives
4Gb+ of RAM
raid controller on motherboard
install Windows 2000 Server (you can even configure it to run software raid 1)
get s/w to do an iscsi initiator so you can allocate the different parts of the disks. (ie. 200Gb for p0rnz, 100Gb for mp3s', everthing else 200Gb)
call it "BioServer"
et voila, a home made NAS, that can act as windows media centre
tigerdirect can become your best friend..
