Works until it dont
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had this for 18 month when it stopped working. I contacted western digital and their 2 year warranty does not cover data recovery. To make matter worse I had to send them my old one before they would send me my new one. I was then told I could keep my old one for 30 days for a fee. I did every thing I could but no one could restore my data.

Disappointing performance and features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought this was going to be an updated improvement to the MyCloud device, but it is not better. It is slower and has fewer features. You cannot create an offsite link to another device for safety of backups (I bought one for myself and one for my son, but NO GO - the discontinued MyCloud device will do this). Also the music server is through Plex only and doesn't work.

Not Happy, It Requires WD App To Function...
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This does not work like my last NAS drive it replaced. Unless I have the WD app running I cannot see the drive (Apple MacBook Pro Retina). While it may work fine, I don't like unnecessary apps running, this is a connected drive and should simply show up under my network drives. I don't recommend this unit...
