This product is not a replacement for a MyCloud
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I happen to have the MyCloud product, and this product in the reviews section. The original MyCloud has significantly better software and quite close to a NAS. You can change the IP address of the product in the software, access the product in the browser, and even use the IP designation of the product on your network as an FTP server. You don't even need to install the software that came with that one esp if you are a power user. This is a joke. You have to plug it in and then install software called WD Discovery which is a nuisance program. You cannot access the hard drive in the browser, nor do you have a bevy of settings to tweak things. For the IP address, I had to capture the MAC address and lock it to an IP address which is more work than I expected to do having used the alternative product. Then, you can't access the drive on a network share -- the software tacks it on the computer as a drive, not a IP, so you can't use the drive an FTP. Worse yet, no DLNA. The MyCloud Home is faster for Plex and that is the only thing you can use. If you use another system that lets you access content as a network share, *forget it.* Meaning you just dropped a bit of money on something that is pretty much an external hard drive that happens to connect to ethernet. Mine will the going back to the store (sadly) the moment I am able to bring it back. I was expecting something more from a product with a similar name, not less.

Great Upgrade to Older Cloud Drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had the older cloud NAS drive for 6 years and was getting concerned that it may give out one of these days, so I upgraded to the new larger My Cloud Home device. Very pleased with the upgraded interface. It includes a migration capability to copy files from the older version cloud device and that has worked pretty well so far. Not the quickest, but transferring lots of files and in the background, so not too concerned. There does seem to be upgraded multimedia capabilities rather than the older less popular applications the old drive featured. Really looking forward to implementing Plex.

Good Drive, But Slow

It does have very slow file transfer rates. Connects better with my MAC than PC. Mobile app works fine, but would like to see better connectivity and file transfer options.
