Description

The Western Digital My Book 4TB is a 3.5-inch external hard disk drive (HDD) with a formatted capacity of 4 TB. It connects to a computer via a USB 3.0 (also referred to as USB 3.2 Gen 1) interface, which is backward compatible with USB 2.0. The drive’s design emphasizes both function and security, featuring a distinctive, vertical “book” shape to save desk space. It requires an AC adapter for power, which ensures stable performance.

A key selling point of the My Book series is its comprehensive data protection features. It includes built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption with password protection, which helps to keep your private data secure from unauthorized access. The drive is also pre-loaded with WD Discovery software, which includes WD Backup and WD Drive Utilities. This software suite allows for scheduled, automatic backups of your photos, videos, music, and documents. The drive is compatible with both Windows and macOS, and is ready for use with Apple Time Machine for Mac backups.
