Yes, you need a pre-Darwin image to copy from to prepare a drive.
Any recommendations on a 1TB drive, or a 2TB one please? I'm going around in circles a bit trying to find out which model would be best. I'd prefer 2TB ideally, if the price differential over a 1TB isn't too big
No sorry - not enough time to be personally testing and recommending drives.
Bets advice is same make and model series as drive already supplied, and/or read the forums as see what others have used.
Advanced Format (4K sectors) drives are best avoided based on experience of others and personal knowledge of what this involves for the file system.
