One thing to note: the "green" drive only has a 3-year warranty, as 
opposed to 5 for the "black" drive:

I've done 3 or 4 RMA's on drives over the years, and they've always 
been around the 2- to 3-year mark. Having the extra two years can 
really help, IMHO. By five years the drive is pretty much guaranteed 
to have become obsolete anyway.
