Ended up going for a DS212J (after much thinking).
Saw a few screenshots of the OS during accessing the NAS, seems like it'll be very easy to pickup and whatnot, so let's hope so.

Got it for $190 on the Newegg Shell Shocker, $207 shipped.
Grabbed two Caviar Reds (2TB ea) for $261 shipped.

All together was actually under budget (500), and let's hope setup will be a breeze.

Going to try and put the two 2TBs into RAID1 for redundancy ( so if one fails, we have the other there, unlikely downtime ), and hook it up to my network for now.

The biggest issue I'm facing right now, is going to be simplifying the UI for the average joe when they upload/download/view files.
