Attitude has nothing to do with performance nor adequacy. There are drives that are focused to be run to store data (slow rotation → long life, power-saving capabilites...) while others are to be run over systems that "needs for speed", reliability and/or maximum performance. Back to your question: is it worth the black edition for non specific purpose and generally speaking? Okay, what are both prizes (blue and black) and what's the exact blue model? But I bet yes, black edition features a 5-year guarantee and only for that I would add extra pennies to the buy.
