    I had it for less than 3 months before it died. It was great in the short window during which it worked. Had my macs backing up to it through time machine with no issue. First my laptop said it Hadn’t backed up in x days and the drive couldn’t be reached. Then I rebooted it and it never came back, taking my whole music collection with it. I could’ve gone to WD for a replacement but the damage was already done once I lost my music. I searched around and tried things I saw in forums (turns out to not be an uncommon problem) to no avail. It was the second and final time I’ll ever use a prepackaged NAS device.

    this is a good option for starting out and wanting very basic features on an NAS. Im not a fan of the software you need to use for it. Also, while this is dependant on a lot of different things the speed of transfer is slow imo. Getting everything loaded the first time takes a long time.

    Good for storage but not for accessibility of files. I cannot figure out how to access files transferred from a different computer on the same Wi-Fi. looks like they are saved on a partition only for that pc. so one pc cannot see what the other pc transferred to the wd.
