Hard drive reliability (specifically WD)
#1
I have several 3.5" Western Digital Green Power 5400RPM hard drives that have been totally reliable over the years (knock on wood) and are very low power. It looks like they have been discontinued for a while and the "newer model" according to Amazon is the 5400RPM Blue.

My Google-fu appears to be FUBARed and I haven't found anything useful on WD Blue reliability. Can anyone share their experience or a link to a review or two?

BTW, I like the lower RPM, more efficient drives for storage. High performance comes from SSDs which will whip any 7200RPM drive.
