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.
