Self Storage – Fantom GreenDrive 1 TB External Hard Drive

I remember when I started selling computers over fifteen years ago a typical computer only had 100-200 megabyte hard drives and floppy drives. Back then I couldn’t conceive of ever filling one of those drives. Now as time has gone by hard drive size has increased while prices have decreased. I was browsing the Buy.com sale page and couldn’t believe what I found.

I found a hard drive that’s a terabyte in size and that’s affordable. Do you know how much a terabyte is? It’s 1,000 giggabytes! I can’t imagine anyone ever filling that up!

The fanless Fantom GreenDrive is an 1 TB external hard drive. It resides in an aluminum case that you can seat either horizontally or vertically, depending on your needs. It works on both the Mac and Windows platforms. The drive comes with a USB 2.0 cable, the power cord and the user manual. It has a two year warranty. Another neat thing abiout the drive is that it’s eco-friendly. It’s designed to be more eco-friendly by consuming 4-5 watts less power than other similar drives, saving as much as $14 per year in electricity costs. What I really like is that the drive is external. That means someone like me could buy this and never have to worry about transferring data again.

The Fantom GreenDrive is currently on sale for $99.95. There’s a mail in rebate available for another $20 off, bringing the final price to $79.95. The drive is also eligible for free shipping.  Wow, that’s a crazy deal!
