I loved the concept but it was difficult to set up and use, After several firmware updates, it dies while travelling in India. Replaced under warrantywhen I returned. I had to send in the dead drive with all my data on it to get it replaced. A few months later the new unit died. Not a happy camper

Purchased this with the intent of being able to do mobile photo editing as the primary purpose. We work with RAW files that are in the 30MB per image range. Using the WD mobile app, browsing the drive and looking at photos isn't terrible, but integration into iOS, or Windows is fairly terrible.

I bought this as a memory card backup device for a trip to the Galapagos. It worked fine at home. But when I got to Ecuador, the Wireless Pro stopped any detectable wireless communication. I tried backing up my SD cards, but could not see if they had been copied to the hard drive.

Occasional disconnects during streaming; streaming can lag if more than three or four devices are connected at once; getting it to work well with Plex takes quite a bit of effort and know-how; My Cloud app could use more file organization options; not rugged

An able performer that suits those who need to transfer files quickly, such as photographers out on a shoot. It's ability to use 5GHz band wireless also eliminates the need for cables, yet can deliver the speeds that large files require.

Wireless transfer; Long battery life

Speed limited by hardware

While the rest of Canada speaks English, have a common law legal system, and believes in a unified country, Quebec speaks French, have a civil law legal system, and always had...

The My Cloud app is largely unchanged from the version launched with the original My Passport Wireless. We detailed most of those features All connected media can be accessed from the app - you can browse all files on attached SD cards as well as smartphones connected to the USB 2.0 port.
