It has two bays, with two hard drives, so you can create redundant backups and really be sure your data is safe. It’s available in 4TB, 8TB and 16TB models. I’ve been using the My Cloud EX2 Ultra (Model WDBVKW0040JCH) for the past couple months. With a NAS, you create your own cloud (hence the “My Cloud” designation) and now you have access to your contents from home, office or anywhere you have Internet access. Once you decide that you are going to take responsibility for maintaining your own files in addition to any “free” cloud storage you can get, the thing to consider is a NAS (network attached storage) drive. Western Digital has an entire line of My Cloud products meant to solve those various scenarios listed above. Both make perfect sense, but one without the other is not a good idea. After you’ve been accidentally locked out of your account or after you’ve been hacked, you’ll quickly realize you should have been keeping your own copy of all those files as well as using the cloud. Crash!Īdditionally, cloud storage is great, until something goes wrong. For every percentage of your hard drive that you fill, your computer is liable to work that much slower, until there is no room for it to do its basic calculations and you get the blue-screen-of-death. With digital photos, 4K videos and all the downloaded movies we accumulate, your computer’s hard drive can quickly become overloaded…and that’s a really bad thing.
