It’s just the series. WD has 5 consumer lines, Black, Blue, Green, RE, and VelociRaptor. All can be quickly identified by sticker colors, the first 3 are obvious and the RE and VR series have yellow stickers.
Black = high performance
Blue = midgrade performance
Green = low performance + powersaving (still very fast in
RE = high performance + high reliability (only series that WD guarantees RAID compatibility)
VR = extreme performance

ya mitch i wanted the 5870 but everywhere i looked was out of stock at the moment
LOL
That’s how I ended up with one, all the midrange Nvidias were out of stock. Newegg, Tiger, Zipzoom, even checked Amazon.
You know, I’m starting to wonder if people actually buy the 5770 out of desire for one or out of necessity due to weak inventories.
