Seems my OS drive is either dying or something, so will get another tomorrow.

Budget doesnt quite stretch to the WD black that I would normally get, so was wondering how the blues compared - obviously there is no way in hell I will be getting one of the cheap green ones, but if the blue is not that much better than a green I might just wait a little longer till I can afford the black.

Edit: just realized I didnt actually ask anything.

So has anyone got a blue they have had in a machine for a while and can confirm they dont suffer from the slow down to useless that the greens have?
