Worth mentioning that Macs don't need special hard drives or anything,
though Time Machine does need a Mac-formatted partition (HFS+). I've never
set up a system for multiple Macs (can you do that using a single server
machine?) but I just buy something that has high marks on
newegg.com<http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=414&name=External-Hard-Drives>
 generally.

I don't know about Lacie's reliability, but they are over-priced.
