Providing extra space to store all the data, music, photos, and videos on your Mac desktop or notebook.

If you're running out of hard drive capacity and need to archive some important digital documents, photos, videos, or music, this elegant external hard drive is the perfect solution. Its design is reminiscent of a book, which means it fits neatly no matter how limited your space.

Fits right in

Now even smaller, the My Book takes no more space than a paperback book. Collect two or more and they nest neatly together like volumes on a shelf.

A visual control center with a single screen view of all your data from which you can back up, retrieve and secure your files.

Drive lock

Password protection and 256-bit hardware-based encryption safeguards your data from unauthorized access.

Smart, eco-friendly design

Built with an energy-efficient WD hard drive inside, it preserves power by turning itself on and off with your computer. There's also a sleep mode and it's fanless for cool, quiet operation. An illuminated capacity gauge lets you see at a glance how much space is available on your drive.

Shock-resistant enclosure

Our case is designed to provide maximum shock protection to guard your valuable data from bumps and jars of everyday life.
