I personally recommend firewire (800) over a usb2.0, especially for external drive.
The advantage of a firewire is that you can build a rack with a lot
of external HDD in a chain (17), bear in mind that the bandwidth is
then shared, so 2-3 hdd in row would be fine.
Other than that i'll would say look for a seagate or samsung drive, inside the case.
