Excellent for streaming your own files on the go
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this is by far one of western digitals greatest invention. I have had many external and internal WD products in the past but none have allowed me to be able to watch my own videos wireless from anywhere before. I have had an external hard drive hooked up to my wireless router before and was able to access files and videos while I'm at home. this new product allows me to access my files and videos while I'm at home and while I'm on the go. not only was I able to hook up my computer to it I was also able to hook up my phone, my brothers phone, and his laptop. this is by far worth every penny and I would recommend it.

Nice, but not great.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Learning how to use this thing has been a real pain. There is lots of storage obviously, but its slow and uses the website and all this complicated stuff just so you can use it. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I just don't get this thing. It is visually appealing though, I love the look of it. Just not quite sure if I would ever buy one of these again.

Easy Set-Up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a new solution for backups for a five-computer household and this drive met my need, and was easy to set-up.
