the biggest difference is the warranty

Blue 3years
Black 5years

Black drives are usually used by gamers
Blue drives are mainly used office systems and regular home computers

nothing, just keep your receipt.

if there is a problem with the drive you will need to contact support.

warranty is included in the price
