Frequently Asked Questions
What RAID modes does the My Book Duo support?
The My Book Duo supports RAID 0 (striping for maximum performance and full 16TB capacity) and RAID 1 (mirroring for redundancy with 8TB usable capacity). You can configure the mode through WD's included software.
Is the My Book Duo compatible with Mac out of the box?
It ships formatted as NTFS for Windows. Mac users will need to reformat the drives to a Mac-compatible file system (such as HFS+ or APFS) before use, which erases any pre-loaded software.
What are the two USB Type-A ports on the back for?
These are hub ports that let you connect additional USB peripherals — such as a mouse, keyboard, or flash drive — through the My Book Duo, reducing cable clutter on your computer.
Can the internal drives be replaced or upgraded?
Yes. The My Book Duo has a user-accessible enclosure that allows you to swap out the two internal 3.5-inch WD Red drives if you want to upgrade capacity or replace a failed drive.
What is the difference between the 360 MB/s speed and actual transfer speed?
The 360 MB/s figure is the maximum sequential read speed achievable in RAID 0 mode under ideal conditions. Real-world speeds will vary based on file sizes, your computer's USB controller, and whether you use RAID 0 or RAID 1.
