Reviews of the Western Digital My Book Mirror Edition (2TB)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Decent performance; low cost per gigabyte; supports RAID 0 and 1; user-replaceable hard drives; cool and quiet operation, three-year warranty; useful bundled backup software.
The Bad: No FireWire or eSATA; bulky power adaptor; supports only Western Digital hard drives; hard drives can't be set up as separate volumes.
The Bottom Line: The Western Digital My Book Mirror Edition is a compelling choice for an external drive, delivering excellent value, good performance, and two hard drives for added data security. For anyone looking for an external USB 2.0 drive, the My Book Mirror belongs on your shortlist.
