The safest place for your data.

Secure your vital data with WD's My Book Mirror Edition dual-drive storage system with RAID Mirroring. With RAID-based continuous data protection, automatic data backup software, and user-serviceability, this is the perfect backup system for your irreplaceable data.

WD's My Book Mirror Edition dual-drive storage system automatically mirrors your valuable data for extra protection. The USB 2.0 interface and a powerful combination of features make this system the storage solution of choice for photographers, home users, small offices, and anyone looking for extra assurance that their data is safe.

The safest place for your data - Using RAID mirroring technology, this system automatically and continuously duplicates your data for the ultimate in data protection. If one drive in this two-drive system ever fails, the system continues to run and your data is safe. How's that for peace of mind?

Automatic backup software - Back up your computer - just set it and forget it. Every time you save a change it's backed up and then mirrored on the second drive for the ultimate in data protection.

Cooler, quieter, eco-friendlier - Designed to use only WD drives with GreenPower technology, this system, with its efficient convection cooling architecture, fan-less design, and power saving mode, is reliably cool, remarkably quiet and consumes up to 33% less power* than standard systems.

* Tests based on comparison between a 1 TB dual-drive system using 7200 RPM drives and a 1 TB dual-drive system using WD's GreenPower drives.

Easy to set up, easy to use - You're up and running in a few simple steps. WD's intuitive RAID wizard software lets you easily modify your RAID settings.

Capacity Gauge - See at a glance how much space is available on your drive.

User serviceable - Want to upgrade a drive? Simply open the case and replace the existing drive - no screwdriver needed.

NOTE: RAID 0 (striped) accesses the full capacity of the drives. RAID 1 (mirrored) accesses half of the total capacity for data protection.

Ideal for:

Gain peace of mind with this true data guardian

Organize and archive vast photo, music, and artwork libraries

Edit and exchange massive audio and video projects

"With raid 1 hard drives set up in my computer and now a raid 1 external back up system backing up all my drives both internal and external, I finally feel that I have suficient redundancy to secure my documents and photographic work. From reviews that I had read, I knew to be careful with the software/trialware blur. At first I thought that I was going to have to pay for the WD Anywhere Backup. That wasn't the..."

Wow, what a piece of ****.

"I have purchased hundreds of terrible products but have never taken the time to do an online review until now. Our business needed a way of backing up large files that didn't involve burning DVDs so we went out and bought this HD. It was a nightmare right out of the box.
