Does what it says
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Is not foolproof but it gets the job done. The price is right and the software works well. Recommended, especially for the remote access option and ease of automatic backup.

Good MyCloud HDD
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good MyCloud device which offers way more storage than digital, online storage. Sometime drops connection to CPU. Also tends to hang on home screen when moving large size files.

Good amount of storage and great concept
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While I think I'm no dummy when it comes to computers and home networking, I did initially have some problems with figuring out exactly how some of the features and folders worked. After the first couple of days I just didn't have something right so I reset it to out of the box setup and started over (that procedure took a long time). So then after getting it set up again and getting to the sticking point with the configuration I wanted, I called tech help for assistance and was walked through the steps I needed to complete the setup. As of now, I'm pleased with it. I just think WD could have had instructions a little clearer.

Great product, a little hard to set up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product works. Great solution for home nas. Works with Sonos, iTunes and DLNA. Required more time to setup than anticipated. Docmentation is lacking and on-line information is not as helpful as expected. Well worth the effort required.

Serves its purpose
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to transfer pics straight from a memory card but a little more difficult and time consuming when transferring a lot of pics from a computer. Nice to see pics and documents from many devices.

Easy to Use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.WD my cloud is easy to install. Just download the app on your computer or phone and connect it on your home router its quick. I got the three TB when it was discounted about 20 more than the two TB version. I wouldn't upload anything unless your on 4g lte or your home router. The mobile app on android is OK needs some work. The mobile app doesn't have a select all to delete what's in the activities and download sectiion you have to keep tapping an tapping on each then delete. Yes its annoying when you want to delete 200 plus pictures from those sections after all the pictures have been uploaded onto the WD.

Overall good product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's great being able to access my files from anywhere. Sometimes the program crashes on large files (4GB+). My one complaint would be on premises, when I play music or go to grab files from the myCloud it has an unusually large latency time.

Excellent product.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use the MyCloud as an internal NAS to facilitate the sharing/transfer of files between PC's, laptops, and tablets at home. I don't need or use the mobile (web) access. It works great. I've also attached a 4 port USB hub to connect 2 'My Passports' for additional storage and backups. Setup was easy.

Lotsa Storage Good Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is pretty well priced for the amount of storage you get but the setup could be a little more straight forward. There are too many different programs and apps for such a simple product.
