personal cloud backup for your photos.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Use this to backup photos on my iphone and ipad. Google is removing their unlimited photo backup next year. I know they lower the res to 1080 but still. use this to backup your photos and forget about it.

Buy Something Else
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would not buy WD again. I had one for home and needed one for my business location. They no longer support the WD Discovery for Window 11. Makes it so hard to view the content on the drive/cloud. Plus, signing into the cloud portal is 50/50. I wish I could return it but I am passed the return limit.

Still Dependable But Bad Software
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I buy one of these for each job I work on. They've all been dependable but this time the new software and interface is really annoying. Constant dropdown menu is aggravating.

Good basic cloud

Good Capacity, can be accessed from off Property
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing I find that doesn't work well is the Western Digital mobile app. I can access what is on my device while away from home quite easily on my laptop but on the cell phone or tablet there is no direct download button I can find as of yet. I have to get files in a round about way if I need them.
