    We love the WD my cloud! Easy to set up with multiple family members. No need to pay extra for cloud services when you have your own. You just need an internet connection and voila!

    The mycloud home works once it is set up. The set up is somewhat cumbersome in that it does not show up on the desktop, or shows up and then disappears. Once you figure it out, however, it works.

    The setup on this unit is plugging into power and your router then downloading the applications on your devices. I love that this centralizes all my files for all my devices.

    This works exactly like I needed it to work. I can access my files from anywhere, even the app on my phone, which is convenient when I'm not at home and need a file right away.

    I love the product, but all the bundled software is outdated and no longer supported. I can't get it to automatically back up the computer as advertised, but it does back up our phones automatically and provides file storage that you can get to from the internet while you are out and about. This would be a 5 star rating if they supported their software.

    Very happy with the backup storage. Not thrilled that when I add a file with the same name as something already there it doesn't warn me, just renames it with a #. I may end up with many copies of the same thing when I really only want it there 1x.
