7200rpm will probably released soon though like they hinted in the response I got from WD, these 2 Green 500GB platter disks have been around for quite a while now so it would start making sense to offer the 7200rpm disks that would do like 100 - 105MB/s avg reads as opposed to the Green 500GB platter disks which performs roughly the same as the older 334GB 7200rpm platter disks.
Imagine how well a 2x500GB platter Blue series disk with 100 - 105MB/s avg reads and hopefully the nice <12ms access times would sell at price of $89 (newegg.com price) or $99 MSRP. Personally I'd take the 1.5TB if price is like $149 or lower though.
