WD recently released the 2TB Black and 2TB RE4 (not RE4-GP) drives... if you hunt around you might be able to find these somewhere. Both are 7200RPM whereas the Green/RE4-GP ones are 5400RPM. The newer models also have some extra features such as a dual head seek mechanism: this does a coarse seek like a normal drive, then an additional fine seek which can move faster than a full head servo mechanism can.
