The extra speed will do you no good whatsoever with music storage. For that, you want BIG. If you're going to be using it as your primary drive, you'll want the speed (which you're not, since it's firewire). However, if that's part of the same Big Drive line as I think it is, that's a pair of disks in one enclosure, without a fan. Because of the way they're configured, if one of the disks goes bad, you lose everything. NOT a good idea. Stay away from anything in the Big Disk lineup, unless you really want to rerip all your CDs on a moment's notice.
--edit--
oops, looks like their website isn't properly set up... The second one isn't a Big Disk, but my statements about Big Disks still stand. In any case, go for the capacity, not the speed.
