1) Cost

2) Stupid users and a litigious society - "I forgot my password, and
now I can't get my pr0n - I'm gonna sue!"

3) Performance penalties vs. standard drives

4) Inability to predict and account for all uses.

For the last, consider the complexity involved in making these work
in, for instance, a home PC with RAID1 or RAID0 set up, not to mention
a dedicated server in a business environment.

I'm sure others will think of other issues.
