What about the Buffalo Linkstation? Googling is suggesting it's not
released over here yet, but indicative pricing looks to be around £200
for 120Gb of NAS storage completely stand alone - plug in power and
ethernet and away you go, no host PC required :-) or also connects
direct to PC via USB 2

IIRC someone on the list already has one that they imported (Kevin
Hawkins maybe ?)
