Western Digital My Book Edition II

Western Digital has launched the new My Book Studio Edition II, a dual drive storage system designed specifically for Mac computers.The Western Digital My Book Edition II is a fully customizable drive, which users can service by themselves. If they need a higher capacity or experience a drive fail, users can just open the enclosure and replace the affected drive with a new or larger one. The My Book Edition II also brags about being an eco-friendly device due to its power saving features. The drive storage utilizes one-third less power than most standard dual drive external storage systems. In addition, the My Book Edition II is equipped with an efficient convection cooling system that does not require a fan. Hence, the drive will run quieter.

For back up purposes, the My Edition Book II has a continuous backup software, so users are ensured that their files would always have backup copies. Adding even more efficiency to the drive’s usage is a LED status indicator which tells users how much space in the drive is already consumed. So, that pretty much takes care of monitoring storage usage.

The price you have to pay for such an energy efficient and less annoying data storage device? $349 for a 1TB capacity drive and $599 for a 2TB drive. Don’t fret out too much about the price, it’s nothing compared to the lifelong storage that you’re going to get for your important files anyway.
