Fast, Green, and Mac® Ready
Formatted for Mac, the My Book Studio Edition II treads lightly on the earth and carries big performance for creative professionals.
• The speed you need – Lightning-fast FireWire® 800 combined with RAID 0 (Striped) yields the speed you need for smooth video editing, rendering complex 3D objects or special effects, and saving huge blocks of data in record time.
• Cooler, quieter, eco-friendlier – Designed to use only WD’s GreenPower™ drives, this system uses about 30% less energy * than standard systems and runs quietly because it doesn’t need a fan.
• Formatted for Mac – Works with Apple’s Time MachineTM software. Includes software and instructions for reformatting to Windows®.
• Automatic backup software – Back up important projects to multiple destinations including file servers, portable drives and My Book. Set it and forget it; every time you save a change it’s automatically backed up.
