I thought I had read that WD's "Green" drives were being discontinued.

They have been. Blue is the new Green. The only remaining 7200rpm Blue
is the 1TB model; all the others are 5400rpm.

Big River does not have an WD 8 TB blue for sale by itself. There is a WD 8 TB red for sale for $303.

One wonders if one should buy the WD 8 TB external for $220 and pull the hard drive out for my 8 TB internal back up drive needs:
