    Get it! It replaced my WD Live TV media streaming device and eliminated the need to leave my PC on whenever I wanted to access media from other devices. Don't hesitate!

    I have found that WD products are great. I'm a user of several of them, and have always worked flawlessly. The cloud feature really gives you the extra on reaching your files anywhere In the world.

    It was simple to get started but I ran into technical glitches. For example, it doesn't support micro SD card installed on my laptop and doesn't let me backup the data on the card. WD SMARTWare software is very slow. It's more than a day and only 7.76GB data has been backed up whereas Microsoft auto backup backed up the entire 30GB data.

  • Great Product for Saving Backups!

    I have several computers so this is a great way to share information between them. Having a huge central hard drive is better than I ever imagined...
