It automatically backs up all your photos from your phone as you take them, ensuring that none of those cherished memories are ever lost. Just imagine the peace of mind you'll have, knowing that your photos are safely stored and easily accessible whenever you need them.One standout feature of the My Cloud Home is its ability to invite different accounts to the drive.

It's like having your own little digital haven where you can keep your files secure and separate from others. Privacy and control at their finest!Now, let's talk about one minor drawback. Some users have reported that transferring files from their computers to the My Cloud Home over the local network can be a bit slow.

The worst WD product I have EVER purchased!

IT’S SIMPLE – IF YOU WANT TO SAVE YOUR VALUABLE DATA, DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE!I run my own technology consultancy business and travel the world with WD portable hard drives in their respective CaseLogic hard cases in my suitcase. They have been all over the world with me in the luggage holds of aircraft travelling to the USA, Europe and beyond. They are reliable, solid and have NEVER let me down. So much so, I now own SIX of them. So, when I saw the WD MyCloud Home, I thought to myself, this would be a great addition to my WD collection, allowing me to use the cloud when travelling, and backing up important business data at home, in the cloud too. As it was, I have just purchased a new MacBook Pro and I needed storage for ALL the data from the HDD of my old MacBook Pro, so this was ideal. It showed up as a mapped drive and could act as a data server. Upon purchase, it was incredibly easy to set up. I plugged it in, set up an account and off I went, loading it with business data, that I could access in the desktop app, in a browser, even on my iPhone or my iPad.Now, trust me, I have run my business for nearly TWENTY years, and I only buy quality equipment with a good reputation. You get what you pay for, as they say, and I thought that paying around £150 for 4TB of storage was a pretty good deal. Not cheap, but then again, not expensive, and I have always held the WD brand is high regard because of their sensible pricing and quality products. That was until 2 days ago, when my WD MyCloud Home simply died. And it died with the entire HDD contents of my older MacBook Pro on it. Luckily, most of that content now resides on my new MacBook Pro, but there were archives in there from older clients, older projects, that I will NEVER get back, which really does piss me off. Yes, I am pissed off about this. Thoroughly pissed off.I have been in touch with WD Support, and Jack has been amazing. Patient, helpful, calling me back. I cannot fault the WD support team, but when they have to tell me that the device has failed and I will never get the data back, I seriously question why WD released the device to market. I was considering putting ALL my family photographs on there last week. If I had done so, I would have lost EVERYTHING, as I would have removed them from the likes of the iPhone, iPad and even the MacBook. The thought of that kind of sentimental loss makes my blood boil.WD are a market leader in data storage. Why, oh why, release a product that does this? Jack from WD Support and I tried EVERYTHING to try to connect to the device. We changed ethernet cables, we connected it directly to my MacBook, all the above, we tried it over a period of about two hours, but nothing. The device won’t power up properly, and when you log in via the WD Discovery app, it just shows as offline, with a message saying the device is offline or rebooting. We tried a hard reset, but again, NOTHING.WD have offered me a replacement device. Sure, that’s great. The existing one is dead, so a new one is due under the warranty. But that WON’T get my data back. Nor will it get my money back from Amazon, as I am now out of the 30-day period.Sure, you might say that I should have another backup. Well, I do. I use iDrive as a cloud-based backup tool, and I also have the majority of the data that was one the WD MyCloud Home on a WD portable hard drive, but it still DOES NOT excuse WD from the fact that this device FAILED and it was less than FOUR MONTHS old! All it has done is sit on the same shelf as my internet router since it was set up. It has not been dropped. It has not been unplugged. IT JUST STOPPED WORKING.So, the warning is right there at the beginning of this review. DO NOT BUY THIS DEVICE! If you have any data you value, DO NOT PUT IT ON ONE OF THESE DEVICES! Period, full stop, end of story.(PS – If there was a ZERO rating for this device, it would have got a big ZERO).

Exactly what I needed

After reading a lot of reviews and watching a lot of youtube content I decided to purchase the 12T (6T+6T) My Cloud Home Duo Personal Cloud Storage Dual-Drives, RAID 0/1To be honest, the reviews and especially the youtube videos weren't giving me the info that I was looking for or they were a bit on the negative side.Anyway, Initially I thought that I could use this device to back up stuff only over the internet, which is nice to mobile back-up, but if you have stuff on your pc or external drive it would be a nightmare. However, this is not the case, as I just transferred all my 2T of backup from my drive into the My Home Cloud just by connecting it to the USB port and then in the My Cloud dashboard you can choose what you want to do with the USB drive that you just connected...and the options are to Transfer from or To the device..fully or selecting the files. Amazing, and you even can track the transfer on the dashboard whenever you want.This definitely met all I needed, and it is extremely easy to use, like super user friendly.I highly recommend this over any other cloud system in house or rented.
