Heat-dissipating, cool-to-the touch aluminium enclosure. The premium aluminum enclosure perfectly complements your Mac computer and the sleek, book-like design allows two or more My Book drives to nestle neatly together like volumes on a shelf.

• Premium performance - Save and access data at top speeds with the high-performance FireWire 800 interface. Also includes USB 2.0 interface for maximum flexibility.
• Designed for Mac - Formatted HFS+ Journaled - Works out of the box with your Mac OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard system. Can easily be reformatted to work with Windows® XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7.
• WD SmartWare - Visual backup software and drive management control center. Install all components, some or none. It’s up to you.
• See your backup as it happens – Seeing is believing. Visual backup displays your content in categories and shows the progress of your backup.
• Password protection – Gain peace of mind knowing that your data is protected from unauthorized access or theft with password protection and hardware-based encryption. (Requires WD SmartWare software.)
• 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 – Customize your backup, set drive security, run diagnostics, manage the power settings, and more from the WD SmartWare control center.
• Cool and quiet - The drive is designed to run cool without a fan. Lower operating temperatures extend the life of the drive and improve data reliability, while the fan-less design reduces noise output.
• 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.
