I picked this up mostly as a storage device for tv recordings but I’ve found it useful in all sorts of things. I’ve since relocated my iTunes library to it and actually am using as part of smart home control. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

If you have a PS4 or a Vita, then this is a great addition. It makes remote play simple. For instance, playing the PS4 that's located in the living room from your bedroom. There is some lag, but for most games it is minimal, and doesn't affect gameplay at all. On it's own, there's not a lot it can do, but you can play the PSX classics on it, unlike the PS4.

Do you have to use 2 drives at the same time? Or can you just put in 1 hard drive and then a second later down the road?

You can use only one and add a second later. If you do this, you have three options. You can add the second as JBOD and have full storage space of both drives. Or you can create a raid0 which makes both appear as one drive. Third you can create a raid1 which has the second drive mirror the first. I know in raid0 you will lose the data on the drives as it has to reformat both drives. I believe you also lose it in raid1, but I’m not 100% sure on that one.

Does this drive allow you to connect to a network with wi-fi or is it only an ethernet access? Also is there a way to remotely access this drive?

The unit itself must be connected via Ethernet. As for the second question there is an app to access it remotely and you can configure it to be accessible from outside networks if you so choose.

Mainstream solution for the higher workloads required by SMB (Small and Medium Business) users in 1 to 8-bay systems and meets the needs of the ZFS community. This WD network hard drive is compatible with most NAS systems with up to 5 bays and features a 1TB capacity for storing files. IntelliPower technology limits energy consumption and ensures reliability, and the 64MB cache buffer offers fast processing.
 

Is this external hard drive powered separately? I need drive to back up DVR and DVR does not supply USB power.

The drive is powered by the NAS.

what kind of hard drive to install in this NAS?

It uses standard 3.5 inch SATA drives, also called “desktop” hard drives. The WD Red drives are recommended as they’re intended for a NAS.
