Fast performance; capacity meter; low power consumption.
No FireWire 400 port; Western Digital utility must be installed before RAID configuration can be changed.

Abstract: The Studio Edition II is the latest offshoot of the My Book range, different from its predecessors by virtue of having two disks in a Raid array. We tested the 2TB version, though a 1TB model is also available. Out of the box its configured as a Raid ...
Enormous capacity. FireWire 800 and eSATA connectivity. Compatible with Mac and Windows. Affordably priced. Can be configured for RAID 0/1.

Sleek design, Lots of storage space, 5-year limited warranty,
Unimpressive write speeds
Though its write performance is less than stellar, the My Book Studio Edition II provides copious amounts of storage space, a sleek look, and plenty of connection options. Western Digital also includes a limited 5-year warranty. If you need to store 7...
The WD My Book Studio Edition II gives users plenty of connection options (Firewire 400/800, USB 2.0, eSATA) combined with gobs of storage space thanks to a pair of 3TB Caviar Greens stuffed inside. The Studio Edition II can be configured in both RAID...
The My Book Studio Edition II offers up to 6TB of storage, features RAID 0 and RAID 1, and supports USB 2.0, FireWire (400/800), and eSATA connections. The drive is fast and affordable

The My Book Studio Edition II makes a decent direct-attached storage solution for those who need to extend a computer's storage space or want a large backup drive. The drive's rather buggy firmware might turn many users away, however.
