“The popularity among consumers of high-definition video cameras, photography and digital music downloads means that users are filling up their computers with massive amounts of digital content as fast as they can click ‘save.’ As the volume and value of users digital content grows, backing up data on multiple CDs or DVDs becomes time consuming and inconvenient. At the same time, consumers are realizing the monetary and emotional value of content and need to back up their most important files. The My Book family, with its massive 2 TB  capacity allows users to backup all their data in one easy step and keep it in one easily accessible place”
