darko100 1 Report post Posted March 30, 2012 Again me with my second NEWSFIR topic (huh , i get excited )WD(Western Digital) launches first external hard disks with 2TB. They are part of the MyPassport series and like others externals , they're compatible with 2.0 and 3.0 USB ports. Western Digital says that the maximal transfer speed is 5GB/s which is very good (we could transfer games in seconds ). The size of these are 2,1cm x 11,2cm x 8,1cm and they weight about 200g , so it's pretty small and portable.The package with the hard disk you can buy contains Western Digital SmartWare software which can make cool things like backup and managing storage. You can also secure files , add a password , encrypt them and everything is safe (hardware encrypted).All MyPassport harddisks will have 2yrs garanty , and they cost about ~250$.

I thought I was in Sam's Club, and I saw some... though I wasn't paying too much attention to this, but I do remember thing, whew, technology flies. Just a few years ago I was buying 3.5"-one, with 1.5TB, and thinking that I was getting a good deal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
