I've had to rescue documents from the drive twice because I mistakenly trashed them. Without it I never could have recovered the documents.

Comments about Western Digital My Book® 2TB External Hard Drive for MAC:

Once you designate a file location it takes over from there and your job is done. Backups are automatic and you can see them to verify this by opening the disk and viewing the latest backup.

Comments about Western Digital My Book® 2TB External Hard Drive for MAC:

My computer gets fairly heavy digital photo use, with many version-saves. I've only had the My Book for a short while but it's companionably quiet and seems efficient. "Time Machine" back-up has so far been it's use here, but with it's portability I could easily take it to a remote site in order to download my large files for use there.

They provide a beautifully simple picture-graph for how to hook it up! 1-2-3.

Comments about Western Digital My Book® 2TB External Hard Drive for MAC:

this drive replaced an inferior Seagate gGoFlex 2TB that made my iMac crash daily just by being connected to the drive. This one runs seamlessly in the background without a hitch. Time machine activates it at will and all is as it should be in my iMac world!
