Easy setup, works flawlessly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hooked it up to an Arris router using an ethernet cable, easily connected to my computer, and the included WD software has been great for keeping folder syncs up to date. I use a different program for performing backup operations, but a 1.2 TB computer backup was completed in about 10 hours overnight. Great feeling of security knowing computer is completely backed up and extremely beneficial to be able to access personal cloud documents from anywhere securely.

Now can backup 2 PCs, 2 iPads and 2 iPhones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have critical files on the PCs which are set to backup every time a file is added or changed. Performed the initial backup of all the data files immediately. It was relatively quick. User can select which file types to,copy. Mostly have photos on the iPads and IPhones that I wanted to be backed up. These have to be selected manually, idividually or by folder, and set to backup. Not as automatic. Can view files from any device on any of the other devices. Really like that. All this done wirelessly.

Needs better format
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great storage product only thing is that instructions are really not helpful(oh that's right it didn't come with them) kinda have to figure things out on your own .. They should do an update where it's easier to use
