Samsung spinpoint or western digital black for raid 1

[npowers86]

this is my first time doing a raid setup and i am wanting to have 2 2tb hard drives in raid 1. this will not be my boot drive so its just for storage of movies and music. which of these drives would be better? samsung spinpoint f4 2tb or a western digital black 2tb. like i said i dont need these for boot just storage to watch movies off of. i am going to use an ocz vertex 2 ssd for bootup and the os and main apps used like xbmc and itunes. thanks for any help. if any other drives would be better please let me know. thanks!

If it is just for music and movies then I wouldn't bother with a WD Black a WD Green will be more than enough storage for music/video
