Basically I need to buy an external hard drive just for iTunes, simply because its using over 70% of the internal hard drive.

The MyBook I have is extremely loud, but I'm only using it for backups now.

Any recommendations for a really quiet, relatively cheap, external drive thats ~200GB+?
 
Maybe something like this on your desktop.

External Hard Drive Docking with FireWire 400, FireWire 800, USB for 2.5" laptop drive and 3.5" SATA desktop drive. No need to buy enclosures anymore.

I was looking for more of an enclosure drive, I've seen that before, its definitely cool.

What about Lacie, or someone else?

I'm guessing that the drive should probably be high RPM's.

EDIT: Would something like this be good: http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?pid=11014. I would really like it to be nearly dead quiet, the MyBook I have is far too loud and I hardly use it.
