Hello,
The GREEN version is the slowest HDD in WD's line-up, but also it takes less energy to work and it will be cooler as temperature goes and it will be quieter. For a boot drive (the primary drive on your computer), the WD BLUE is the better choice.
Green drives are the more "eco-friendly" drives, slower, less, power, less heat. Typically used as backups or such.

Blue drives are pretty much just a regular standard drive

Other WD colors are:

Black are higher performance and quality, they are faster and have longer warranties

Red are for raid and servers

Purple is the newest and is intended for security systems

Between green and blue I would go blue.
