I don't want to have to manage a RAID array myself, so I'll go with a NAS box. I predominantly use a laptop so RAID in that isn't going to happen :) and my only desktop is meant to be a MythTV box (but is currently booted to windows to transcode some DVDs) and there is no chance of me getting RAID setup in Linux, I have enough problems with it as it is.
