Pros
1TB, VERY quiet, low power consumption
|
Cons
none so far
|
Summary
I have purchased a WD blue, black and green series drive in the recent past. The green sata3 is almost silent compared to the WD black series which sounds like an amped up coffee maker. For all that I cannot notices a significant performance difference between the two.

Dylan_S 04/19/12 Experience: 3 Days
|
Pros
-Great Price -Neatly Packaged
|
Cons
-Lack of Screws -Lack of Spec information on drive
|
Summary
I really wished I knew what the RPM was before buying the drive, this is being used as a primary drive, however due to it being SATA3 I didn't think it would make a difference, the lag is unnoticeable and transfer speeds are better then any SATA2 drive I've used.
Overall I'm impressed by this product for under $94.00 after price match.

|
Pros
Quiet Runs cool
|
Cons
Expensive
|
Summary
This drive isn't meant to be fast. They are meant for storage where fast takes second seat. Do to the lower RPM they also run quiet and cool and makes for a great HTPC storage.
Thailand floods messed up the prices lately but they will come down, slowly but surely

Pros
very fast HDD
|
Cons
expensive (possibly because of the Tailand flood)
|
Summary
A very fast hard drive, but right now it's too expensive because of the Tailand flood. I recommend you to wait until the price drops if you are in a no hurry.

Features:As hard drive capacities increase, the power required to run those drives increases as well. WD Caviar Green drives make it possible for energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation.
