Well, I now have a pair of WD 2TB "Green" drives set up as RAID 1. I chose the "green" version because they ought to run cooler and therefore more reliably, and speed is not of the essence.
Actually, if you want the best reliability, there are two version of each drive. The consumer version and the enterprise version. The enterprise version of green is supposed to be more reliable and better for RAID use than the consumer version of green.
Otherwise, consumer grade Blue, Green, and Black, are supposed to be equal in their reliability. The difference between them are things like power consumption, speed, cache, and, of course, price.
