Combining its extended 6 TB storage capacity and compatibility with Apple Time Machine, the new My Book Studio Edition II drive becomes an instant storage solution for a variety of professions, it added.

The system offers a quad interface providing maximum performance and flexibility including eSATA and FireWire 800 when maximum performance is essential; and FireWire 400 and USB 2.0 when system flexibility is most important.
