Mainly this:  Blue and Green are just cheaper slower, shorter longevity, than the Blacks.  The RED's are mainly for NAS storage or RAID...slow, but dependable, Purple, who knows.

/e  The "ENTERPRISE" drive of choice is the RE series.  No that's not a typo...the RE is a Black with same warranty but rated for 24/7/365 ops. They cost about $25 more than the Blacks.


Purple drives are rebranded Reds with slightly different firmware that is tuned for both RAID use and 24/7 uptime.
