why to get  blue and not to  buy  black??

black is overpriced as F and is literally the same as blue but with a 7200rpm motor, let's say is the Samsung EVO or the NZXT of the HDD market

 

Barracudas are way cheaper and offer the same performance, but hey, it's your money not mine, if you want to burn it in a WDB drive there's nothing I can do about it lol

[jim33]

what  you mean black is overpriced as F??

 

what  you mean when  you say  if you want to burn it in a WDB drive there's nothing I can do about it ??

Dude, just get whichever is cheapest, or if you so badly want the Black just buy that, both are good drives.

I quote the following from the last time I answered this question on another post:

 

"These two devices are pretty much the same, they both are 7200 RPM and offer you 5 years warranty and share the same amount of load cycles. If you want to point to the differences then you need to look under specifications at the columns:

• Cache: Seagate has 256MB and WD has 128MB of cache. More caches is good for when you use several different type of data or applications, the drive stores in the cache the most frequently used data to have it available for when is requested and that helps minimize wait to load times.
• Nonrecoverable Read Errors per Bits Read, Max: Seagate has 1 per 10E15 and WD has 1 per 10E14. This number means the amount of possibilities that a sector could fail, not every body likes math but 1 per 10E15 means that there are less possibilities for one sector to fail than 1 per 10E14.

I don't really believe you are gonna get regretted for buying one or the other, get the one that suits your budget better."

Yeah, I saw that in their website:

 

But when I check the Specification Sheet (PDF) it doesn't tells me there are also 256MB drives:

 

I think this is most likely just a single typo and someone forgot to add it also in the specs .PDF but feel free to contact them in case you have doubts: Contact Support
