Review: Great Usually - This is the third WD My Cloud unit I have purchased. First one failed after several years of working well. It was a duo and had two drives. Unfortunately the failure was in the way it communicated and not in either hard drive. Since I am not sending my unit off with my data in it, I tried to salvage the two drives full of data. WD stores the RAID data in an almost unrecoverable format, so I lost the data. I did gain two working hard drives out of the failure however. With this said, the WD Home Cloud systems are great for home storage and should almost always be recoverable if a usual type problem happens. I bought a single and another double (duo). The way they move data is almost bulletproof and not subject to transfer failures as with many systems. With the way they are securely accessed, you have all your data and photos with you on your mobile devices anywhere you go. I think every home and small office would benefit from owning one. Just one bit of caution; NEVER TRUST ANY SINGLE SYSTEM WITH ALL YOUR DATA STORAGE AND BACKUP!! Yes, The unit that failed was backed up elsewhere. BTW, these can easily transfer their data to another USB backup device by plugging it into the back of the device.
Review: A case sensitive file system on a Windows machine?? - Like many has said, you need to install a WD application to map a z: drive to access the files. You can't use a network share. One positive thing is that when you are on a laptop and you are traveling, you have the files transparently available at z:, similar to other Cloud drives. The bad news is that the drive uses a case sensitive file system like those on Linux. Normally you won't notice it until you try to install applications or use a command line to open files. If you created a file called, 'My Document.txt' and you try to open the file by 'my document.txt', you get a 'file not found' error. This is unacceptable for Windows users. Lots of applications will not work when they are not careful in retaining the original file name in case. It also creates some weird behavior when you can see multiple versions of a file with different cases in the name in the cloud portal but back in Windows, you see only one. You may accidentally work with the wrong one when using different variations of the file name. UPDATE: returned the product. When one of my Windows backup program (SyncBack) cannot see the Z: drive, that is the end of it. I couldn't work with projects on the drive directly and I couldn't work with a local copy and sync my folder back to this WD Home thing. Talked to WD support via email and phone and they offered no help. I switched to "ASUSTOR AS3202T 2-Bay INTEL Quad-Core NAS". It has way more features (it has an app store!) and allow me to work with files via SMB shares. Plex app on it can do transcode without any buffering (WD Home constantly buffers). Asustor can even integrate with other network shares and cloud drives seamlessly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with ios 11.2.6**
A: Yes, there's an app for iOS, you can see all your files, images, etc.

**Q: Alot of reviews say you can Backup all file types (pdfs, jpgs, ppt, etc...) while others say you can only back up pictures and videos. Please Clarify!**
A: You can auto-backup pictures and videos.  You can copy anything you like to it using your computer.

**Q: I have this hd but i can not figure out how to make the pc read both drives it only wants to read 8tb instead 16tb**
A: What Format are the drives in? What OS do you have? Go into STart> Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Disk Manager and look to see in this menu, what devices it's seeing as storage.

**Q: Does this come with the hard drive or do you need to purchase separately?**
A: It does have a hard drive inside. But if you want something that auto syncs files and folders whenever they are modified, it doesn't support that feature. It is just a hard drive accessible over internet. I hope the answer helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as intended...
*by B***R on October 9, 2018*

Works great & connected to home network with little to no issues. I was uploading my different cloud storages that I've had throughout the years & have managed to get everything sync'ed. I'm still trying to get the plugins to work well or trying to figure out if there's any relevant content even on there. The Plex media server is a great feature but is somewhat difficult to get set up correctly. If you have a nice movie collection, it's a great tool to use to stream to every device in your house; once you buy the Plex Pass. The DUO seems nice too having a redundant hard drive storing all my (once, someone else's) cloud information right in my home.
