4 x Western Digital 250 gig sata 2's, 1 unplugged as a back up of all my important shi* ;) I wouldnt touch anything that wasnt Western Digital or Seagate. I have had Seagates in the past and they have proven to be extremely quiet and reliable :)

Note: do not plug sata hard drives up by both their different types of power connectors! I learnt this the hard way and lost 500 gigs of video.... up in smoke Snoop Dog styles :(
 
Two EZQuest drives. 60GB and 120GB. First firewire drives I owned. Still going strong.
Two G-Raid 500GBs
One internal WD 250GB SATA
Two 80GB Acomdata firewire external bus powered drives. Field P2 backup, large file moves for between me and graphic guy.
10GB external USB 2.0 bus powered drive for file backup.
Four Internal 250GB SATA Drives that I drop into an open firewire exclosure. I archive my P2 footage to these.

2.62TB thus far. WOW.

Purchasing soon: 2TB SilverSATA V array from Wiebetech for playback of Uncompressed HD.
