I got WD green drives before just for storage, they are quiet and efficient. If you want something to access the files quickly go for a WD black drive

Red - Reliable (Mainly for NAS)

Blue - Normal (Mainstream)

Green - Silent but slower (Backups/secondary drive if you're using an SSD)

Black - Daaa speeed

 

Beware of the noise of Black drives though...
