Default Network storage for home network (wifi or not?)

Hi all,

I have 5 desktop machines running a mix of Linux and XP on my network
at home. Two are wired the rest are wireless (g). Am thinking about
adding a Network storage unit, firstly does anyone have any
suggestions.. something not too expensive.

I am also contemplating wifi or not, moving data (5mp pictures etc.)
round could be really slow when going wireless even if it's 54Mbps.

Would appreciate any feedback on brands/models etc that anyone has
experience with. I have a new 300G Maxtor IDE that I could put into
whatever new enclosure I buy for starters.

Thanks,

Kevin
