From the Manufacturer
Speed is what you need for video editing, big design
projects, or managing photo shoots, and that's what the Western Digital
WDH1Q5000N My Book Studio Edition 500 GB external hard drive delivers,
with FireWire 800 and eSATA connectivity. With its automatic backup
capability, My Book Studio Edition backs up your creative masterpieces
the minute you save them.
My Book Studio Edition is easy to set up and easy to use. Installation
is a snap because you don't really install this drive, you just plug it
in and it's ready to use. There is no CD to install; the included
software loads from the drive the first time you plug it in.
By using the automatic backup, you can back up important projects to
multiple destinations including file servers, portable drives, and My
Book. You can use it to synchronize project files to keep them current
and secure. Set it and forget it; every time you save a change it's
automatically backed up.
The quad interface system provides flexibility and performance with
connections for ultra-fast eSATA, FireWire 400 and 800, and USB 2.0.
The eSATA interface gives you speed comparable to a state-of-the-art
internal hard drive, while the FireWire connection delivers a
high-performance interface that is perfect for Macintosh computers. USB
2.0 is also available for convenience and compatibility among multiple
computers.
My Book Studio Edition takes no more space than a paperback book.
Collect two or more and they nest neatly together like volumes on a
shelf. This external hard drive also turns itself on and off with your
computer, while Safe Shutdown prevents the drive from being powered
down until all your data has been written. (Works with the USB and
FireWire connection only.)
This environmentally friendly drive is designed to save power by going
into standby mode after 10 minutes of inactivity. When you're ready to
use it, it wakes up automatically. My Book enclosure's heat-dissipating
design with Morse Code also prevents heat buildup, a notorious data
killer. How cool is that?
The My Book Studio Edition is backed by a 5-year limited warranty.
