Western digital 2tb my book studio edition 2

Install the WD turbo driver may speed up a few percents. Yes, RAID 0 configure will use both total of 2 drives space. For two drives configure, RAID 1 is the most secure so far. For RAID 0 configure, if one drive fail, you will not be able to retrieve any data. When you do that, all data will be lost. Make sure to back them up first. I am not sure how to do it from Time Machine, but for sure copy and paste is working. How do I un-install WD drive manager completely?

Yes, installing the WD turbo driver will speed up by not much. If you are happy with what you see, just do not install it. You are right. You can not uninstall the WD drive manager. It is built into the the drive firmware.

Easy to set up and use. Silent in operation. Cons: Plastic casing is a little fiddly to open if you require to replace the drives. The power block of the power cable is built at the wall plug end of the cable, which takes quite a lot of space when connected to a surge protection power bar with other peripherals. Overall Review: I was looking to buy two bare drives to replace those in my aging external hard drive in order to expand the storage space, but I found it would have cost at least the same or more than this brand new 2 TB external HD.

Overall happy with my purchase. I haven't installed the software that came with it, I don't really need to, I just use it as it comes out of the box. It's nearly silent as it does't have a fan. The plastic casing is a little fiddly to open if you require to replace the drives. The power block of the power cable is built at the wall plug end of the cable, which takes quite a lot of space when connected to a surge protection power bar with other peripherals, I would have preferred a two-piece power cable but can't have everything for that price.

I hope the next one is better. I normally have good situations with WD but I'm skeptical now. Pros: It's an awesome back up drive. I love that it has two hard drives. I've been burned in the past with losing all my files. So this thing is amazing. I know my files are backed up twice. Sold by: Newegg Shipped by Newegg. Learn More.
