It reflects the problem that plagues the computer technology industry. Then, I would wait minutes to load up a file. And I would find myself waiting minutes just to display the contents of the WD McCloud 8 TB home storage system. It literally took two weeks to copy the 2 TB of data from an old hard drive I had that was running out of space. Sometimes it would just stop copying and I would have to spend a lot of time figuring out what did copy and what didn’t in order to continue. They are unreliable.Įven with super high speed wireless, I found myself selecting one sub-directory at a time and copying it to the Western Digital M圜loud Home system. Don’t buy it or any of Western Digital’s products.
Western Digital’s 8TB M圜loud Home hard drive is worthless at a mere $349.

The WD McCloud takes forever to load using the WD Discovery App on my MacBook Pro system. It works great if you have a lot of time to waste waiting. So I went out and spent almost $350 for an 8 TB WD Hard Drive that connects to my home network and that creates a “M圜loud” system that I supposedly could access locally in my home and remotely outside of my home.Īnd you can access your data, if you are a Snail and really don’t care about time. With cell phone and iPad technology, it’s easy to find yourself overwhelmed with thousands of digital images that are huge in size if they are HD (High Definition) Quality.

But the Seagate Hard Drive is so seamless in installation and speed of use, my troubles are gone By Ray Hanania And the systems don’t work together, as advertised. I had two WD Hard Drives, the M圜loud 8 TB hub and a 4 TB WD Hard Drive. Switched from Western Digital to Seagate for better storage I was forced by the poor quality of the Western Digital hard drive I purchased to switch to a new system using Seagate Hard Drives and I am glad I did.
