I know for a fact that they have used WD GreenDrives in the past. Do they use them now? I'm planning to pick up a 4TB Fantom Megadrive and before I drop that kind of coin on one I'd like to confirm that they use (hopefully) WDs in them as well.

Did a lengthy Google search and found nothing.

Thanks.
 
Found the answer finally.

Their GreenDrive line uses WD Green Drives.

Their G-Force line uses either WD, Seagate, or Hitachi. But it isn't about the drives here. It's about all the other stuff surrounding the drives - the controller, etc. Pretty solid construction.

Fantom drives have been selling like hotcakes. They're completely sold out at Tiger Direct (at least every Canadian store in my area and there's like 5 of them.)
