Features
Maximum storage capacity with drive spanning—Out-of-the-box, this two-drive
system combines both drives into one volume that acts like one big drive for maximum
capacity.
Double-safe backup with RAID 1 technology—Set this system to data protection mode
(also known as mirrored mode or RAID 1) and the capacity is divided in half. Half of the
capacity is used to store your data and half is used for a second copy. If one drive fails, your
data is protected because it is duplicated on the other drive.
Complete out-of-the-box solution—My Book Live Duo comes complete with two
WD large capacity hard drives offering high-capacity, low power consumption, and cool,
quiet operation. The drives are factory tested within the enclosure for optimized performance
and WD quality you can count on.
Shared storage for all your computers—The perfect dual-drive solution for centralizing
and sharing data on your wired or wireless network. Connect the My Book Live Duo device
to your wireless router to share and access files with any PC or Mac
®
computer on your
network.
