The good news is that the WD WDBACW0020HBK My Book Essential USB 3.0 External Hard Drive has been carefully planned from the start to peacefully co-exist with USB 2.0. First of all, while USB 3.0 specifies new physical connections and thus new cables to take advantage of the higher speed capability of the new protocol, the connector itself remains the same rectangular shape with the four USB 2.0 contacts in the exact same location as before.

Western Digital My Book Essential USB 3.0 External Hard Drive Holds:

* Up to 400,000 digital photos
* Up to 500,000 songs (MP3)
* Up to 50,000 songs (uncompressed CD quality)
* Up to 140 hours of Digital Video (DV)
* Up to 850 hours of DVD quality video
* Up to 240 hours of HD video
