I like the mycloud.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought three WD drives-two Passports, one Mybook. I have been very happy with all them. Then I purchased WD MYCloud. MyCloud is easy to setup and easy to use. It took me a while to understand about dashboard and drive access process. I mapped the drive. One item is not clear to me is, when set up the drive, it displayed WD Mycloud icon in the explorer . But it doesn't show all the folder that are included in the MYcloud. Manual does not mention about this icon and it's function.

It's nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The idea of having all your files readily available is convenient. For some reason my music files load faster than my picture files. I didn't like that it didn't come with an usb cable. Also having to directly plug into the router I'm hit or miss about.

Challenging setup but works well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely not for a beginner. Physical connection is easy but the software is a 7 out of 10 on a difficulty scale. Backing up a system on it is fairly straightforward but restoring it seems nearly impossible. Managed a work around but not via the software.

excellent storage device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this storage device and I couldn't be happier. it provides excellent amount of storage and the best thing that it is more private than using other cloud products available in the market. You can access everything you have stored through your computer of a phone app. it works with android, windows and apple products.

Ok product for personal cloud at home
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It performs what it advertised to have a personal cloud at home. However, the file transfer speed is slow, and a bit noisy when it runs. I also encounter sync problem with my files in my computer. Overall, an ok product for file back up storage.

Works great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This cloud system was extremely affordable at best buy! I'm very happy with my purchase. The only thing that would make this better is a instruction manual that explains how to set up user access and secure the system. It's a lot of trail and error and can take some time. Other than that, it's pretty awesome.

Really expanded my network.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First the boring stuff. Packaging was great, no damage during shipping. We love this device. The 2TB storage is plenty of room for all of the family to save pics, music & movies. And it allows me to free up HDD space on our computers. I love the remote access via the android and windows apps. We use this every day.

Great cloud storage alternative
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found it really easy to use and manage; however I didn't like the iPhone app that interacts with the hard drive because there is no progress bar when sending pictures or videos. So you never know how long time it takes or if it is working or not.
