WD Mybook II as backup device



Recently I moved our NFS exported data (900GB) from SCSI on one of our
production servers ( 5 year old Intel whitebox) to a NetGear ReadyNAS.
The move to the ReadyNAS worked flawlessly and quickly, much faster than
I suspected.

However, last year we bought a WD MyBook II (2-2TB drives in a RAID1
configuration). So far the MyBook II has been backing up the ReadyNAS
for over 4 days. All of our systems including the WD have 1Gbps NICs.

In any case it does serve its purpose.
