Default Caviar Green vs Black

I need to get a 1TB or bigger drive for my desktop. I stream a lot of video over our network off of these hard drives and was wondering if I would notice a difference between a caviar green or black drive. You can get a 1.5TB green drive for the same price as a 1 tb black. I am a big WD fan (I have 7 or so in my house and none have failed me and all perform well) and I remember a few years ago Seagate was having a lot of issues with drive failures, have they fixed that? The seagate 7200.12 (I believe) 1TB is like 20 bucks cheaper than the caviar black... what do you guys think of seagate drives?

Any advice would be great.
Thanks
