WD My Book Essential 1TB Desktop Hard Drive
The best-selling My Book external drive is an elegant, high-capacity storage solution for all the chapters of your digital life. Our latest edition now features visual, easy-to-use, automatic, continuous backup software and drive lock security protection. At last, beauty, brains, and simplicity together.
Product Features:
Smaller, sleeker, more streamlined design – Western Digital have made these award-winning drives even smaller, sleeker, and more elegant. As always, this book-like shape takes up minimal space on your desk and allows two or more My Book drives to nestle neatly together like volumes on a shelf.
WD SmartWare – See your life safe in one place.
* See your backup as it happens – Seeing is believing. Visual backup displays your content in categories and shows the progress of your backup.
* Protect your data automatically – Relax, your data is secure. Automatic, continuous backup will instantly make a second copy whenever you add or change a file.
* Bring back lost files effortlessly – Retrieve your valuable data to its original location whether you've lost all your data or just overwritten an important file.
* Take control – Customise your backup, set drive security, run diagnostics, manage the power settings, and more from the WD SmartWare control centre.
Drive lock – Gain peace of mind knowing that your data is protected from unauthorised access or theft with password protection and 256-bit hardware-based encryption.
Illuminated capacity gauge – See at a glance how much space is available on your drive.
USB 2.0 interface – A simple connection that offers convenience and compatibility among multiple computers.
Power miser – My Book external drives are designed to save energy. WD GreenPower Technology™ lowers internal drive power consumption by up to 30%, a sleep mode reduces power during idle times, and a power-saving feature turns the drive on and off with your computer.

  • When you get external HDDs by post, is there any chance that their lifetime will be reduced? Since they probably get knocked around alot?

    • I suspect they get knocked about a bit travelling from China to Dick Smiths……so I would imagine they'd be ok…

      • The thing is, I've read somewhere that big stores use special reinforced storage for bulk HDD deliveries, which would be different from some posties just chucking it in the back of their truck.
