Great device

Not pleased with My Cloud Home Personal Cloud
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The installation process was NOT very intuitive. It loaded up ok on my desktop pc, but it was a chore to add it to my laptop. When WD did a software upgrade I had to uninstall and reinstall it on my laptop. The difference seems to be that my desktop pc is hard-wired to my wi-fi router, whereas the laptop is using wi-fi

Western Digital Nas 4TB
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product does not last. Was working perfectly over a year and half and the drive failed. All my data and synced photos were lost. In order to recover data, it has to be sent off to data recovery and they charge to recover the data. They quoted $2000 for data recovery. Western Digital nor BB does nothing to accommodate data recovery but give you a number to call data recovery. Will never buy another WD storage device. Every WD storage device that I have ever bought has failed.

Stay away from HD’s with moving parts!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked fine for a while then it stopped working about 1 year after purchase. My advice is to stay away from Hard Drives with moving parts and instead purchase a good cloud plan. HD’s are a waste of good money. Most HD’s will fail - guranteed! Amazon, Google, Apple are good companies that have good cloud plans.
