Western Digital has launched WD 2go and WD 2go Pro mobile apps for its My Book Live personal cloud storage platform, which connects to the home network creating shared storage.
WD’s My Book Live features a built-in media server that streams music, photos and movies to any DLNA-certified multimedia device such as a WD TV Live network media player, Blu-ray Disc player, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and connected TV.
My Book Live personal cloud storage allows users to store media and files safe on their own physical drive and yet access them over the Internet with any PC or Mac computer or on tablets and smartphones through WD’s mobile apps.
WD 2go apps provide mobile access to files stored on the drive using an iPad, iPhone, iPod touch or Android compatible mobile device.
In addition, the WD 2go Pro app enables private sharing of files with friends, family and colleagues.
The WD 2go Pro app includes features such as Clipping, Automatic sync, Content sharing and offers an additional layer of security by locking mobile access to the My Book Live drive with a 4-digit pass code.
WD 2go web access marks WD’s second generation of remote access technologies that leverage a peer-to-peer connection between the My Book Live and remote PCs or mobile devices to maximize the speed and throughput.
