Getting a new HDD

I am planning on purchasing another HDD after Christmas. The one I have my eye on right now is the Wester Digital 1200JB. It seems to be the fastest drive out there. Also, it runs pretty cool compared to some of the competition (Particularly IBM's 180GXPs). The slight operating noise from these drives is negligible because my fans will probably be loud enough to drown it out. My fans aren't really loud, but modern HDDs are pretty darned quiet in general. Even my 75GXP is quiet enough for my tastes. Anyway, I just want to know if anyone can offer me a reason not to go with the 1200JB? I always like to hear other people's opinions before I make a final decision.
