My Book Studio II Mirrored Drive

Hello, 

I have recently bought this for storing all my digital photos in a safe place. 

I am currently downloading files onto the hard drive from my mac. Is it possible to plug the harddrive into my other computers to fetch the photos from there too? Or is this drive now permanantly connected to this device? I worry that if I unplug it and then plug it into another device it will lose all the data or get damaged in some way. 

Thanks

Yes, you may plug your hard drive into other computers.

As long as you eject your drive before physically disconnecting it, there shouldn’t be a problem.

There’s no such thing as a drive that is permanently connected to a single device. You can connect it to as many computers as you want/need.

And I don’t need to download the software each time?
