If you happen to be in the market for some serious external storage, and have a thrill for some HD content creation, Western Digital may have something right up your street.
The company's My Book Studio Edition II, already available in 2TB and 4TB capacities, has now taken a leap of faith into 6TB domain.
The My Book Studio Edition II is Mac ready and takes time travelling in its stride, with support for Apple Time Machine, but Western Digital is enthusing about its RAID-enabled solution being ideally placed to meet the rapidly increasing storage requirements of HD content. Brimming with connectivity support for eSATA, FireWire 800/400, plus USB 2.0, Western Digital aims to brush performance concerns aside and gushes that its 6TB Goliath should mitigate the requirement to compress or distil content quality, for the sake of space.
GreenPower technology makes an appearance here too, making the My Book Studio Edition II a gentle green giant and for those who like tinkering, user serviceability allows you to get under the hood and pet your drives.
Priced at just under $550 USD, a 5-year warranty completes the parcel and availability should be imminent.
