So Far So Good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this to be a backup in our small office. From other reviews, I thought this would be easy enough to setup myself....I was wrong. We had to hire the Geek Squad to come out and really get this backup to work properly. There seems to be a few quarks in where it is saving the backups, but we seem to be correcting those with a little bit of effort. Overall its a great backup and worth the money.

Serves purpose
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am using the item to back up family photos and it is working well thus far. The transfer speed is a bit slower than I expected but am not sure if this is due to my wireless network or the storage device. Although cloud access is not important to me, one drawback I noticed is that you can’t copy folder structures via the cloud interface. You can only drag and drop folder structures when accessing the device from your home network.

A solid entry level NAS.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've owned this for several years and use it for regular file based replication backups over the network. The configuration is largely set and forget it, I've never had the public share that the NAS sits on my network drop for any reason, and to date, I've experienced no data loss. A solid entry level NAS.

Hard drives were all completely shot, brand new.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upon opening the brand new product, I could not get the item to work, took it back to the geek bench. They confirmed that 100% of the drives were dead and not functional. I ended up having to return the product. BestBuy never got any similar products or replacement product so i ended up having to buy something else online and cancelled my subscription.

Great Network Storage for a good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I upgraded my old WD My Cloud which I purchased a few years ago and "only" had 2 TB of storage. After years of storing pictures, files, backups from various computers around the house and scans for work I decided to get more space as well as protection as I realized after a power failure that if my drive failed I basically had no backup. This device has a 2 drives with one for data and the other as a backup. Problem solved! In addition WD My Cloud has an app for our iPhones, iPads and Android phones that automatically backups photos when we are on home WiFi and I can access files through a web interface when away from home. It does require a gigabit home network as 10/100 speeds are slow.
