The Packaging

The My Book Mirror Edition comes in a consumer friendly package. You can see clearly that Western Digital is on the 'Green' bandwagon and even reflects this fact by claiming the My Book is 30% more energy efficient.

The side of the package shows the My Book nestled between a row of books.

The back of the box has a lot of information that is presented in a manner that is easy to follow for those of us that are technically challenged.

The other side takes us back to the book shelf and shows the back side of the My Book.

The top of the box gives the user an idea of what to expect when they open the package. The drive is setup for RAID 1; data protection. Also listed are the package contents and an estimate of the amount of files the My Book can hold.

With the box removed, we see that the My Book is packaged very well with over an inch of cushion between the unit and the edge of the box.
