I would stay away from WD Black. They are not exactly the most efficient drive out there. And if you need the extra performance, just check out SSDs for now. They are miles ahead of spinning drives.

For storage solution in 2010/2011 is
SSD for system
Low consumption/RPMs drive for storage
BD-R for backup (for those unaware, yes, 25GB's BDR has dropped below a dollar if you know where to get them)
