What's inside Western Digital My Book Studio Edition 1TB External HDD?

Which Western Digital Hard Drive is inside? I would like to get it, however if the WD Green Series HDD is in there, I think I rather pass.

Please include a link to the facts or something :)

I believe the My Book Studio 2nd Editions were designed to use only WD's GreenPower drives.

The hard drive included in the Western Digital My Book Studio Edition 1TB External HDD is model # WDH1Q10000
More Information: http://www.wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=374

and the Western Digital My Book Studio II Edition 1TB External HDD is model # WDH2Q10000
More Information: http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=409

A quick Amazon search on the 1st Edition lists nothing about green features.

A search for the 2nd Edition list the drive as the green series.

You might want to contact Western Digital directly to see if there are any other options. Their basic support number is 1 (800) 275-4932
