Western Digital WD has come out with the My Book World Edition II dual drive network storage device today, which they hope will be the end device for the backup and storage for all your network systems. The WD My Book World Edition II dual-drive network storage system is aimed at enthusiasts and power users that have multiple computers in the household and want to keep them backed up over their home network. With the double protection of two Mirrored RAID 1 drives and continuous automatic backup software, the My Book World Edition II network storage system provides an extra-safe place for users to back up and store the data and digital media from all the computers on their network in one central location.
The My Book World Edition II network storage system uses RAID 1 Mirrored technology to automatically and continuously maintain a second copy of users data using supplied software that you need to install on each computer that you want to keep backed up.

Any plans to implement DLNA? So any idea how to have access from the SB to the music stored on this network drive? Using its default settings, data can be stored and shared within a minute or two, which will satisfy most home users. The NAS server comes with five licenses one for each computer of WD Backup Anywhere software that worked pretty well, though we found that it really bogged down the computer's performance when a backup is being made.
For a better backup solution, we'd recommend Acronis. Features Doing something more involved than just sharing and storing data on the My Book World Edition requires more from the user. The device's Web interface, though well organized, is sluggish. Once we clicked on an item, it would take a few seconds for the clicked item to register, during which time there is no indication--like and hour glass--that the device was working on this request.
The Web interface is useful in that it allows you to further customize the functionality of the NAS server. Despite its simple look, however, making changes can be a little intimidating for the novice user. For example, say if you want to add a new user, it's fairly easy to see the User button that you can click on. However, after that, you might not know what to do. There's no instruction on the page; all you see is the list of existing uses. As it turns out, there's a tiny plus sign that you need to click on to open the add-user page.
While some will argue that this is easy enough to figure out, we found that this not so obvious for novice home users and not consistent with other parts of the Web interface, where icons and buttons are made much more obvious and self-explanatory. The device allows you to plug a USB hard drive--for backing up content--into the port on the back of the NAS server and manage it using the Web interface. The NAS also doesn't support any self-downloading features where you can set the NAS to download files on its own without the involvement of a computer.
However, we found that this is possibly the worst over-the-Internet access solution we've seen in a NAS server. The setup of the server is easy. Then, follow three easy steps to set up an account with MioNet; the NAS server will be registered to the account automatically.
