    Bought this to plug into my time capsule and use it as a cloude storage, but after being on the phone with WD for 45 mins we determined that wasn't going to happen. I returned it because I wanted to be able to transmit things without having to connect. I did turn around and get the mycloud WD 4TB and that works better.
