I have an approx 3.5tb content (music/video) collection. I'm looking for suggestions on a good power efficient but yet reliable drive that I can use that would be suitable for occasional streaming. It would sit unplugged most of the time and would be a backup to my online storage. That way when the internet is down, I'd still like to have access to my library.

I was thinking a 5400rpm standard drive in a USB enclosure, but I'm not sure what brands are good these days. I've always had decent luck with WD, but I'd like to know what you guys think is the best.
