I purchased this because a family member had over 30,000 pictures and videos on her iphone. These are backed up in icloud, however, they cannot be deleted from her phone without being deleted from icloud. We did the Google Photos thing as well. The problem with all these cloud services is that we are dependent on the providers to maintain services and keep our pictures private. They cannot guarantee either of those. It took some time for the My Cloud Expert Series EX4100 to back up her phone because of our home internet speed and the fact that there were over 30,000 files to upload. We have successfully uploaded all those photos and videos. It was a quick and easy install as well. Anyone with just a little tech savvy can do this. We are so excited now. All her photos and videos are safe and secure in a place that we manage. We are now in the process of uploading digital photos and videos from previous phones and devices. We are able to access the photos and videos from anywhere. We can also disconnect our pictures from the web at any time. This product has brought peace of mind to my home.

Pretty good for a WD, even for a small business. Does most of what I purchased it for could use some more apps. would recommend. Easy to use, pretty fast so far. small and easy to tuck away.

This is the second My Cloud I have owned. My original one was just too small so I upgraded. Am very happy with these devices. They are reliable and have all the features I need.

I received my EX4100 very fast. I unpacked and when I was initializing, I had a "bad" drive right off the bat. Called tech support and they were great! Got me up and running within minutes and assisted me in finalizing my setup. So far everything has worked perfectly. It is very fast and I love the fact I can access all my files from anywhere through the internet. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommend!
