WD My Book Duo 16TB Desktop RAID External Hard Drive
The WD My Book Duo 16TB is a dual-bay desktop RAID external hard drive offering USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps) connectivity with support for RAID 0, RAID 1, and JBOD configurations. Designed for home and professional users who need high-capacity, reliable desktop storage with built-in redundancy options, it ships pre-configured in RAID 0 for maximum performance and capacity.
Ideal for creative professionals, content creators, and home power users who need large-capacity desktop storage with data protection options. RAID 1 mode mirrors data across both drives for peace of mind, while JBOD mode allows the two drives to operate independently. The built-in USB hub ports let you connect additional devices without losing a port on your computer.
Backed by a 3-year limited warranty and Western Digital's decades of storage expertise, the My Book Duo includes Acronis True Image software with ransomware protection, 256-bit AES hardware encryption with password protection, and broad compatibility with Windows 10 or later and macOS 11 or later (reformatting required for macOS).
