WD My Cloud Mirror Personal Cloud Storage 4TB (8.9 cm (3.5 inch), dual-drive NAS) (Accessories)

Customer Review

I have the 4TB version of course with a dealer I trust bought. There they offered me more advice and more power than here. In addition, the price was listed at 11 cheaper. The seller slowed me because I only wanted to 12TB variant. He took me back down from my steamer. Said it fully for people who want to secure their private files such as pictures, documents and videos to 4TB, this size completely aussreiche! He was right.

Purchase crucial for this system was an ancient WD hard drive with IDE connector which I found in the basement. More than a decade she was down there and no electricity. She is still working properly. There were all of the data still on it incl. Windows ME. Therefore me convince WD of the Haltbarkeit.Ob this also applies to the here-made specifically for NAS WD Red hard drives to be seen.

Furthermore, it was important for me, the RAID function. Specifically, the RAID1 function which all the mirrors on the second disk on the disk backup data. If at some point to go broke. By mirroring are of course the user only 2TB available I .... my 2000GB. I sure as only key documents, pictures and video's mentioned among others smaller 4K videos and even these are more than 2000GB aussreichend. In a complete Windows system backup but I do without! In addition, however, I share this 2000GB with two different user to each 500GB. So therefore I have only 1TB available. And this is enough for me.
And if the capacity should burst once .... WD Red out and re-clean. A 3TB WD Red hard drive currently costs 99euro.

In my eyes a thoroughly enjoyable system. The facility was also practically by itself. The 700 pages in the PDF operating instructions stored can be charged at any time. However, the illustrated with me specially the pictures somewhat faulty !?
Whether it is now up to my new 04/2015 computer or on the side of WD, I can not judge directly.
Where it is claimed some time in my eyes the menu! Here you have to enter something Peeve until one understands this construction and its operation. Even I as a relatively Experienced CPU. Users.

Where can I also still want improvement, that's none of my cloud gets user displays the amount of memory it has available and still free has. Only I as an admin can see practically how much the entire system is still available.
Maybe I have this option is not yet in the system found or it does not exist ?!
What also might be desirable from an admin access option from my smartphone.

Finally it should be mentioned, that's the exchange of data between the in-home PC and the cloud insanely fast. This unsterstützt my 1GB in conjunction with a 6-pin shielded LAN connection noticeably to my Fritz box 7390.
It is also said that if you for example with a 6000 DSL within Germany want to upload a video up, this place slowly goes appreciably as a used as I 50MB line.
This NAS system operates without fans. Therefore, it is more than quietly.
