From remote access and sharing anywhere in the world to simple add-on storage, backup and mirroring, the My Book dual-drive storage systems meet a variety of needs generated by today’s increasing volume of digital content. The new 2 TB capacity is now available on WD’s My Book World Edition II, My Book Pro Edition II, My Book Premium Edition II models.

"The explosive growth in devices that create rich multimedia content — from digital cameras to music players to digital video camcorders — continues to drive consumers’ insatiable demand for more storage capacity. The popular My Book family of external drives delivers peace of mind in a simple solution that can provide remote access, sharing, protection and storing of precious files," said Jim Welsh, vice president and general manager of WD’s Branded Products and Consumer Electronics businesses.

Extra Data Protection

The system can be set by users to reserve half of its capacity to mirror users’ data in real time using RAID technology — in this case, the RAID 1 setting.
