Anyways, here's the link to the raid article I mentioned.
I wanted to ask why you feel an external hard drive is necessary? Are you going to be traveling and want to take your movies?
As for the raid, if you want 2tb, I saw that there's 500gb hitachi for $100 each, or 1tb for $369 (with coupons). To get up to 2tb, you can use 5x500gb or 3x1tb. You will lose one drive's use to the raid5 array, and you can expand raid5, so the 500gb drives may be less expensive and easier later down to expand.
