March 8, 2010: WD has released a new series of My Passport Studio portable drives that are formatted for Macintosh computers and compatible with Apple TimeMachine software.
Offered in capacities of 500GB (RRP $239.99) and 640GB (RRP $269.99), the new My Passport Studio feature automatic and continuous backup with WD SmartWare software plus 256-bit hardware-based encryption. The e-label smart display on the front of the My Passport drives can be changed as often as desired using the included WD SmartWare software. Users can easily create a label to personalize their drive or remind themselves of its contents. The e-label also shows available capacity and whether the drive is locked. Utilising e-paper technology, the information on the display remains clearly visible, even when the drive is unplugged.
The FireWire 800 interface lets users save and access data at top speeds, while the USB 2.0 interface provides convenience and compatibility among multiple computers. The new drives are supplied in eco-friendly packaging and come with a three-year limited warranty. For full product details, visit www.westerndigital.com.
