Aside from the Western Digital’s Velociraptor, that has a spin speed of 10,000 rpm, they have three more in their product line namely, the Caviar Blue, the Caviar Green, and the Caviar Black.

The Caviar Blue which has a spin speed of 7, 200 rpm is primarily developed to balance speed, noise, and power consumption without sacrificing its performance.  It sits between the company’s high-end Caviar Black and the slower but savings-oriented Caviar Green.

The Greens on the other hand is designed mainly to promote eco-friendliness in this category. It runs very cool and quiet but dropping its spin speed to 5,400 rpm. It is an effective solution to servers, PCs, and HTPCs who are looking to cut on electric bill expenses because of its low power usage.

The top end Caviar Black has its focus on delivering the most performance you can get in the Caviar line up. It is comparable to the Velociraptors but has lower spin speed of 7,200 rpm.
