A:AnswerHello,
I use Windows 10 and have had no Network Management Issues. I had no issues pinning the drive to Network Neighborhood where it operates as a NAS. What is better when you download and install the My Cloud Home Software it places a Z Drive in Windows Explorer which is even easier. I am coming from the Original My Cloud and this is a huge upgrade. Hope this helps.

A:AnswerThe device is basically a drive on your network that performs as any other drive. You'll need to either place your key phrases in the title, or use an organizer software to do what you want. I will follow this in hopes someone has a better answer.
A:AnswerI believe there is only 1 drive in each unit, based on your choice of devices. 1 2TB or 1 4 TB, etc. The unit has 2 physical drive bays, so I assume you could add another drive if you wanted for additional capacity of the or for raid.

A:AnswerAs far as I can tell, no. It does not behave like a traditional hard drive (NAS or otherwise). On MacOS, disk utility will not identify it, and the few setup options it has do not include partitioning.
