Is there anything under $1k that anyone here recommends?

Another vote for the OWC drives. Very reliable and the speed is hard to beat.
Generally, on the Mac there is nothing that beats the transfer speeds of FW800. Even when only FW400 is available, it will beat the transfer speeds of USB2.0 every time. E-SATA is not readily available for the Mac (no drivers built-in), but real-world speeds wouldn't best the tried and true performance of FW800 anyway, so my recommendation is to go with that.
