  • WD really delivered a drive that's paramount for an Apple user. It's massive storage capacity, easy to access internals and a rigid metal body make it a clear winner. It's also got a competitive price point now that would work well with the current Mac ...

  • Extremely fast for external hard drive, good looks that go nicely with Macs, simple formatting options and easily upgreadable,
  • Prices of Thunderbolt drives are fairly higher than USB 3.0 of same capacity, and passive cooling means only 5400RPM drives can be used.
  • Essentially what we have here is an external drive which allows you to seamlessly work on your Mac with heavy workloads and use the My Book Thunderbolt Duo as a backup device and a primary drive to work on without any lag or slowdown in work. So we hav...

  • Gute Datenraten, flexible Konfiguration als RAID 0, 1 und JBOD
  • Konfigurationssoftware hat gelegentlich Probleme, den RAIDModus einzustellen, hoher Stromverbrauch im ausgeschalteten Zustand, wird sehr warm da Lüfterlos
  • Das 4 TB große My Book Thunderbolt Duo von Western Digital eignet sich gut als schneller externer Speicher für einen Desktop-Mac. Auch für Time-Machine-Backups ist das Gerät geeignet. Es sollte aber frei stehen, da es ohne Lüfter auskommt und daher im Bet...

  • Abstract:  Face à la monté en puissance des SSD que reste-t-il aux disques durs, même aux systèmes RAID bi-disques ? Le G-DRIVE PRO constitue à lui seul déjà la première alternative.Le principe d'un comparatif, c'est de comparer tant que faire se peut ce qui est com...

  • Abstract:  Le principe d'un comparatif, c'est de comparer tant que faire se peut ce qui est comparable même si dans certains cas, pour des raisons parfois d'ordre technologique, on oppose des produits radicalement différents par manque de protagonistes ou faste d'in...

  • Les vitesses de transfert,  Les modes Raid 0 et 1
  •  Le prix élevé
  • Le My Book Thunderbolt Duo offre une capacité élevée. Son mode Raid 0 permet de tirer pleinement parti de l'interface Thunderbolt. Dommage qu'il soit aussi cher (près de 500 euros), d'autant que le câble n'est pas fourni !...

  • Avec le My Book Thunderbolt Duo, Western Digital goute à la technologie Thunderbolt en conservant son design de référence. Les performances sont dans la moyenne avec des débits inférieurs au LaCie 2big Thunderbolt équipé de deux disques durs 3,5" tournant...

  • Abstract:  Western Digial 推出的 My Book Thunderbolt Duo 以 Thunderbolt 作為訴求的儲存裝置,究竟有什麼有趣的地方? 「備份」 兩個字,對於電腦使用者,應該是常常在做的一個動作。資料備份,可以避免主硬碟因不明因素損毀而造成資料無法取回,畢竟資料往往都比主機來的重要許多。現今,使用者擁有許多不同的方式備份資料。一般較常見的方法有光碟燒錄、USB 2.0/USB 3.0 外接儲存裝置或是透過網路連接至 NAS 備份;至於 Mac 部分,除了 Mid 2012 產品開始支...

  • Abstract:  備份觀念每個人都越來越重視,市面上也有很多 NAS 產品、隨身硬碟提供消費者選擇。一般來說,隨身硬碟只是方便在外讀存資料用,備份設備首選一定是 NAS。但 NAS 對於 Mac 使用者來說,雖然一樣用網路就可以讀存資料,但整體支援度,還是比不上 Windows。而 WD 提供另一種儲存解決方案給 Mac 用戶:WD My Book Thunderbolt Duo。這類產品並不是第一次看過(網路上已經有出現過),如:LaCie,但都只有國外,台灣遲遲沒有進,所以玩家只能看得到卻吃不到,而現在 WD 推出 W...
