Seems to work!
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5It was very noisy the first few days I had it hooked up. The disk mechanically spinning around. It seems to found it's groove and is not that bad any more. I can access the drive when I need it. I have to assume it is actually mirroring to the other drive via RAID-1. I can't access it to check.

easiest setup ever
|Posted .Pros mentioned:Ease of use, Set upI would recommend this to a friendI had this running in 10 minutes. I have only been using it a couple of days so far so good. All 16 devices recognize the storage and read /write to it. I'm the only one using the storage, can't speak to multi users.
What experts are saying
Q: QuestionThe overview storage capacity states 12TB, but specifications describe each hard drive (in a duo-hard drive system) as 6TB in a RAID1 configuration, which yields only 6TB storage capacity. What is the true storage capacity of this unit?
Asked by RAID1.
- A:Answer Hi, Please know the My Cloud Home Duo is configured in RAID1 by default. To use the full capacity of 12 TB, you may change the device configuration to Full Capacity Mode(JBOD).
