Slow, WILL NOT STREAM PLEX!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace a mac mini plex server that was using a USB 2 HD. This unit will not stream plex. Its so slow, that a 15 year old Mac Mini beats it. Do not waste time or money on this horrible piece of WD junk.

Does just what it says
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a much better device than the newer "Home" versions. This one streams audio and video without the terrible Plex app, and is faster by far. This is the one you want.

Ehhh, find something better.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The setup was quick and easy. Its got a great app so you can go right to files from your phone or tablet from anywhere. Unfortunately thats where it ends. If i can address it and send files right to it and move files back and forth from my tablet, why cant i do that in Windows? The only way to remotely access the drive from a computer is thru a web based interface.
