It's working good, but not the best.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't know if it's me, but the file transfer speed does not meet my expectation. But other than that, the concept is really good.

Good but missing critical features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was all good til I found out that u cannot watch a video stored on it if u are not at home on the same network u can stream music but not videos which I swear is one of the main points of a device like this

Solid drive with quirks
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In general it works very well. But if you change the default name it loses the name and you lose access to it after a period of time.

Its okay for starters
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device worked as described, my only irritation was the user management this device came with. If you’re looking to use it for a single user backup, this device is just fine. I, however, was looking for something that had better user control and a better app to use on my smartphone. If you are looking for these in your beginner NAS setup I would highly recommend the Western Digital MyCloud.

Backup and media sharing made easy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been meaning to get a backup/storage device for years. Finally decided,after looking into many options that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg I purchased this. So far it does exactly what it says it will. I can stream all my media throughout my house and run backups with ease. I highly recommend this.

Great capacity for price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Full backup takes 10 to 15 hours the first time. after that it is only an hour or two. continuous backup works well.
