be aware that vu+ has usb and esata ports so its not imperative to use internal drive. have a lacie 1tb drive off the esata. works fine

As stated, e-sata is an option, but would personally recommend to use an internal sata drive personally... Found it to be much more reliable, but that could just be because I have partitioned my hdd since having an internal, and the external was a 1.5tb drive not partitioned. I've heard that drives over 1tb cause problems, and that's what I had (well, partitions, as my 2tb drive partitioned in 2 x 1tb partitions seems to work great)...

I have a WD 1.5 TB internal SATA (WD15EARS) works great :)
