http://cnet.co/1s4zL96 The WD My Book Duo offers up to 12TB of storage space and gives fast performance, but CNET editor Dong Ngo doesn't need one. Turns out, he has his own personal storage device, so much better that it's scary!

Comments

  1. Duo encrypts the drives and if the case dies you have to get another duo case to read the discs or crack the encryption. What a great idea for them, but shite for the user. I bought one and WD just lost me forever.
  2. can you use it on ps4 , 4.5 update?
  3. Fantastic review! You are the only reviewer that talked about the power settings for when the PC is on/off!
  4. can i connect to a rpi3 nas?
  5. I have a massive problem with my 2TB WD MyBook and the WD Smartware that is somehow written on the USB Controller so I can't delete it. It causes problems with my Linux TV Box I run LibreElec on. Does this HDD enclosure have that same virtual drive installed on it's controller?
  6. Dong Ngo was kind of an a**hole in this review... "my hands are better than yours" "i keep all my data in my head"? #wtf #ego
  7. i love this my book is best
  8. How many duos can be connected via USB?
  9. Mine runs at 54c and thats when its sitting directly in front of an AC at 24c. Also my drives keep making a clicking sound once every 1.5 seconds.

  11. WD 16TB My Book Duo, if drivers were set to operate as two independent drives (JBOD), and one of them died, do i lose data on the other one?
  12. я вот одного понять не могу май бук на 16тб стоит 35К а хард на 8 тб ВД ред 20к*2=40к на 5к дешевле + устройство! где логика. или скадка при покупке скажем 2-6 хардов
