Too small for Bapu. He should take a couple of them

While I have no interest in My Book Dou, a lot of the regular My Book line is also on sale.

I would not dare to put so many files and backups on that thing to have it crash and burn, losing everything at once.

This should be free with every Soundpaint purchase.

This is what Bapu needs to back up CbB and all of his projects.

Buy two and mirror them. Quite unlikely both would fail at the same time.

People have been saying that since the days of 44MB drives.
If you have a lot of important data, you need a good backup plan, regardless of how much data you have.

Duo's are mirrored drives already.

Regular My Book's are single drive enclosures.

I purchase My Book drives in pairs. 

$100 off 16TB My Book looks pretty good.

My bad - I only saw that it was a large drive; I didn't look at the price. I was just thinking of safe backup strategies.

Unfortunately, I'd need to get a loan from someone else before I could loan to you.
