It's a D-Link DNS-323 which has been rock solid for me otherwise. I believe it's SMB only. If Time Machine was written properly it shouldn't matter if my disk chokes and dies half way through the backup, it would be able to resume. Fingers are very crossed they've made it more robust in Snow Leopard.
