I heard that WD20EARS (Western Digital) is great choice for storage, check out the review, it should be around the site somewhere.

I boot with WD Blacks. I use the WD Greens for storage only. One thing I like about the WD Greens is that they automatically shut down after a period of non-use.

I do not worry about the energy savings so much as the reduced thermal load.

WD Greens suffer from a design flaw. I was thinking about buying one, but after reading this, I reconsidered & bought a Caviar Blue WD10EALX for storage. It's more reliable than Greens for sure.
