Larger storage in handy mobile storage solutions just got better as WD expanded its My Book family of external hard drives to include a 2 TB capacity, the largest available capacity in a single-drive system.

The entire family of My Book external hard drives features:
- New 2 TB capacities allowing users to store and backup all their data in one central location;
- Elegant, small footprint design;
- Capacity gauge to see at a glance how much capacity is available on the drive (not available on the My Book Essential Edition drive);
- Environmentally friendly design that saves power by going into standby mode after 10 minutes of inactivity;
- SmartPower(TM) features that turns the drive on and off with the computer and Safe Shutdown(TM) that prevents the drive from being powered down until all the data has been written(2);
- Kensington(R) Security Slot that allows users to secure drive to their desk with the separate purchase of a Kensington lock kit; and,
- 1-year limited warranty.
The My Book Studio Edition, My Book Home Edition and My Book Essential Edition 2 TB external hard drives are available now at select retail stores and online retailers. My Book Mac Edition 2 TB external drives will be available next month. Estimated pricing ranges from $329.99 USD to $379.99 USD, depending on drive model and capacity.
