This is just the solution I was looking for. Unfortunately earlier today
I went out and bought a 300gb Maxtor One Touch as all the existing NAS
products did not suffice.

Thoughts:

Obviously I'd prefer it if it was cheaper.
For me the 400gb drive would be the one, and I would expect to be able
to back up the content to a PC across my wireless network at night (I
am Windows based and currently use MirrorFolder for backups). However
if I couldn'd install software on the NAS then it looks as if I might
have a problem. Does it come installed with Samba? If not... how am I
to see it on my Windows network and back it up?
I'd also be interested to know what the projected price of the 400gb
device is... I imagine it would not be too much more than the 120gb
price (here's hoping)?
The other thing is... for my requirements it would have to be very
quiet. Currently I would be forced to situate it in my lounge.... :-(
And, as has been mentioned, how would I upgrade Slimserver (bearing in
mind I do not eat, breathe and dream Linux)?
