Things to note
-The WD Green I've had for a while and it's an older drive, it was manufactured on the 4th of March of 2008
-The WD Black I've had since only last year, and it's manufactured on the 28th of February 2014
-The WD Black had 224GB of 931GB full, so it was 24% full.
-The WD Green had 0GB of 466GB full, so it was 0% full.
Overall, definitely go for the 7200 RPM HDD.
