Performance
My Book Duo’s dual-drive design offers superior performance with USB 3.0 connection to enable transfer speeds up to 290 MB/s.

In mirror mode (RAID 1) the drives continuously maintains a second copy of all digital files for real-time data backup . One drive is used to store the user’s data while the second drive is used for a duplicate copy. In the unlikely event that one drive fails, all of the user’s data is still available from the other drive.
