I believe most users will always have a lot of friends around the use of Apple Mac computers for everyday applications such as general clerical or simple movie clips , they will also face the problem most people encounter is the lack of hard drive capacity , the easiest way , of course is to buy an external portable hard drive , in addition to the common market USB 3.0 external hard drive for Apple Mac users who actually have a better choice.
WD My Passport Pro recently launched portable external hard drive products mainly for recent years more and more people are using the Mac platform designed with the home , the use of 2.5 -inch hard drive with 2TB and 4TB of high- capacity options , My Passport Pro were long 143.4mm width 88.5mm, 2TB capacity model thickness of about 28.7mm, as for 4TB model is thicker 44.2mm, weight 460g , respectively, and two 720g.
The shell is made of aluminum silver and black design , to accommodate the main silver Mac computer platform, using Thunderbolt interface interface, although still Thunderbolt interface available for years because most PC motherboards have not provided the platform and Thunderbolt interface to the PC platform has not been able to effectively play but for Mac , the Mac products are currently each have at least one set of Thunderbolt interface, and supports more than USB3.0 high speed transmission efficiency , for Mac users to have to say a certain appeal .

My Passport uses two 2.5 -inch hard disk drive group consisting of the Pro, with My Passport Pro 2TB model is the use of two groups for WD Blue Slim 1TB build together, to build into a 2TB hard drive capacity , through a combination of RAID 0 mode , at the same time RAID combinations of 0 write speeds make the drive to nearly double , to make My Passport Pro maximum read and write speeds of over 200MB / s.
Because My Passport Pro speeds higher than the average portable hard drive , coupled with Thunderbolt have higher transmission bandwidth and provides electrical power Thunderbolt USB 3.0 high compared , thus promoting the external hard drive would have more good advantage. My Passport Pro 's Thunderbolt cable integrated in the fuselage , the wire will be surrounded by a circle , and when the storage body closely in the fuselage , when used with the family also just gently pull out , very convenient.
My Passport Pro uses the ASMedia ASM1061 chip inside the controller , this chip is generally more common in the motherboard platform offers SATA 6Gbps bridging function , and the use of x1 PCIe v2.0 specification , and then use Thunderbolt interface to transfer data , as well as two sets of free hard will drive long-term operation in the high temperature , body position near Thunderbolt interface has a small fan when the temperature reaches a certain level will start to rotate , the airflow in the hard disk drive , the heat dispersion to aluminum metal casing.
My Passport Pro features designed specifically for Mac's Drive Utilities utility after installation to check the My Passport Pro RAID mode and status, users can choose to RAID 0, RAID 1, JBOD three different modes of operation, respectively, for speed and data security and set up, in addition to providing SMART status and partition the hard drive test function to check whether there is any abnormal hard drive in order to take appropriate action.
WD My Passport Pro wide range of uses, in addition to a daily file stored outside for audio and video clips can also be put to use home video movie on the My Passport Pro for editing directly, because they have a high literacy rate to make the program accessible when not will slow down the system, but also to maintain adequate storage space inside your Mac. In addition can also be used as a Time Machine backup Mac system, automatic backup applications, photos, e-mail, use JBOD mode will be able to divide half used Time Machine, and the other half used for storing files, very easy to use.

Editorial Department this use My Passport Pro 2TB model and the use of MacBook Air (Mid 2013) for evaluation, testing and more were flying speed RAID 0 and JBOD mode respectively. Use Disk Speed Test is My Passport Pro 2TB test write speed, RAID 0 mode up to 210MB / s write and 224MB / s read, as JBOD or RAID 1 mode single hard case would be about 111MB / s write and 112MB / s read.
Another advantage of the software AJA System Test also like when My Passport Pro 2TB in RAID 0 mode, regardless of the use of Binary Frame Size or File Size tests also come about 220MB / s write, 224MB / s read speed, in JBOD or RAID 1 mode will get about 108MB / s write and 110MB / s read.
On the other hand, the editorial department also tried to copy a file into approximately 5GB My Passport Pro, in two different modes respectively, 24 seconds and 48 seconds to complete the copying, high-speed USB 3.0 mobile devices than in RAID 0 mode the performance is also more excellent for use as a video clip storage and instant entirely without difficulty.
