Hey there, Jason!

Indeed, there are some differences between both HDDs, despite the fact that the 1 TB model WD Blue has the same RPM as the WD Black.
The WD Blue is our mainstream drive brand designed for everyday computing and is a reliable storage solution that can be used as a system/primary drive. There are often used as secondary storage as well (especially the bigger WD Blue capacities, despite having 5,400 RPM), paired with an SSD.
These drives come with a 2-year limited warranty. You can read more about this particular drive here: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=Z6oKwZ

The WD Black is our performance drive and is the preferred choice for power users who demand it. They are designed to deliver that performance...

The WD Black is our performance drive and is the preferred choice for power users who demand it. They are designed to deliver that performance while gaming or using demanding applications like video/photo editing, digital art software apps, etc. The drive incorporates a dual-core processor that further maximizes drive performance and it also comes with a 5-year limited warranty. Compared to standard hard drives such as the WD Blue, the Black hard drives pass more strenuous and aggressive internal testing over a longer period of time. Here's a link to their official product page as well: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=Q8TACm

Hope this was helpful. Keep me posted if you have more questions! :)
