I've slammed a 1.5 TB into one of these before with no problems.

This was $20 last week. I bought it and am using it now. You're too late on this ben!

I paid my new $15 AR- $26 doesn't seem attractive for a refurb.

We have four of them for work that we often use at client sites. As stated in previous posts from previous deals, they're much, much bigger than the picture may have you believe. They seem to work fairly seemlessly, but they're slower than sh it. I'd opt for a version that has firewire and eSATA as well.
