My Book automatically powers off and on with the computer.
You may also safely turn off the drive without powering down the computer:
Drag the My Book icon to the Trash icon for proper dismount. You may hear the drive
power down as the Power LED flashes. When the Power LED is steady, you may
press the Power button once or disconnect the drive’s power cord to turn off the
drive safely.

shutting down the drive.
