Much better than a File Server
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a failing file server and was looking at $1k plus replacement cost. I am a sole proprietor and simply no longer needed the horsepower of a server.

Very easy to setup
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive was very easy to setup and runs great with Windows 8.1. I am now backing up everything with this device. I can access all my files from my iPhone or iPad very easily. The only issue is that you can't view password protected Microsoft Office Documents. Hopefully that will be fixed in a future release.

Good performance, tedious installation.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First I'd like to say that I'm happy with my purchase and I've got it working good. The only complaints were having to figure out some stuff by trial and error with the software needed to run it effectively from three different computers. I would have preferred a better user manual that explains everything you'll need to run it. I found out that I had to download extra software from the WD site. I've also had problems with it not taking my password the first few times while trying to log into my profile which is annoying. All that being said I'm happy to have something that is fast and accessible wherever I go via computer or mobile app.

Great Cloud Storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a breeze to install and has allowed me to better network the systems in my office to each other. I'm FAR from being a tech pro and I was able to get this up and running in no time and I haven't experienced any issues in keeping my systems connected to it. Data transfer times are very fast as well.
