Western Digital has today launched its My Book World Edition II dual-drive network storage system.
Available in capacities of 2TB or 4TB, the My Book World Edition II - pictured right - houses a pair of hard drives configured as a RAID 1 array, ensuring an automatic second copy of data is always maintained.
The My Book World Edition II is compatible with both PC and Mac systems, and sports a USB 2.0 port for further storage expansion. As with the existing My Book World Edition range, version II retains Gigabit Ethernet connectivity and can act as media servers for DLNA-compliant devices.
Sounds a useful high-capacity network drive, and it's bundled with Western Digital's MioNet remote access software - allowing for web-based access to the device from any computer.
Both 2TB and 4TB drives are available now with US pricing listed at $399.99 and $699.99, respectively.
