Western Digital My Book 3.0 goes SuperSpeed USB

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget....05-10wd303.jpgWestern Digital's kicking off the expected flood of USB 3.0 announcements here at CES with the new My Book 3.0 series. The 1TB version of the SuperSpeed drive is actually available now for $179, or $199 in a kit with a USB 3.0 adapter card, while a 2TB version will hit next week. That's actually not a terrible deal if you're into futureproofing, since USB 3.0 is backwards-compatible with USB 2.0 -- you could theoretically use this drive with both your current machine and your next one. Or you could just keep buying cheap storage for the thrill of it. We won't judge you.Western Digital My Book 3.0 goes SuperSpeed USB originally appeared on Engadget on Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:38:00 EST.
