Best way to do what? That could be written as:
def get_buffer():
buffer = [None] * 512
print "Buffer: %s" % buffer
return buffer
In your code, no matter if index equals 1 or 2, a list with 512 `None`s is
created, printed and then returned.
It would be really better if you describe *what* you want to achieve, not
*how*. And in words please, not in code snippets.
