Well, I went with the Seagate... I have a 240GB SSD for everything I need. The drive is for backups and music/movies/pics.

Thanks guys!

Green drives all together only save a small amount of money overall. My proof? I don't have a source I strictly use but you only save a few cents on just hard drive power consumption. I would get the Seagate if you get the 7200.14 generation which uses 1TB per platter drives. Performance here doesn't seem like a big issue because it's just a storage drive though so just whichever is cheaper or offers better service.
