Review: Fantastic Media Server option left running 24x7 - I'm really happy with my choice. It's expensive in comparison to other NAS however, when you start to compare to setting up a lower power consuming computing and attaching storage, the difference in cost is minimal with a lot more effort. Reason for my purchase was to centralise media and use as a plex media server. Works fantastically. I push content to my tvs which are Samsung with a plex media app. Transcoding can take place if the tv doesn't support it and not seen any issues. I've streamed up to 4k media content with no issues. The UI for accessing the PR2100 (My Cloud) is very easy to use. Shared folders accessible via my Mac. I've added my partner as a user so she has a partition and access. The app is great, so you can stream content effortlessly and free (using VLC media player - couldn't be easier!). For those debating, if you want a NAS that is there merely for storage, this will easily do the job but there are cheaper options where you'll still get a very similar experience within the WD product range. For those where Media streaming is wanted, this is a fantastic, no hassle option and worth the premium price. I've owned this for a good few months now, no issues. Love it.
Review: A great Home Cloud device. - Very easy to set up for home based cloud services. We have it set up in a cupboard that houses our tech in our sitting room, just below the TV. When it was first started the fan came on and it was a bit noisy but it soon settled down to a whisper and now we don't notice it at all. Moving our iTunes library and photos to the cloud took a while over LAN (which is to be expected), but now they are available from all our devices via the My Cloud and WDPhotos apps. It has plenty of room on it to allow us to scan our old negatives and photos and have somewhere safe and accessible to store and browse through them at our leisure. I would thoroughly recommend this version of the WD MyCloud series over the previous incarnations. The improved processor and RAM makes the PR2100 great for streaming HD movies so we can watch them on up to four devices in HD simultaneously. The fact that it runs off 2x6Tb Red drives in Raid 1 provides peace of mind that should one drive develop a fault we are safe in the knowledge that our data is still safe and only need to replace the faulty drive and rebuild the Raid.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Im looking to get a wd 4100 drive..can connect this up to a netgear switch then run the cable via a cat 7 cable to the tv ?**
A: Connect to switch via Ethernet - set up as NAS then access using whichever client over network either over Ethernet or WiFi if you have access point or wireless router. I use Plex - easy to set up and works on lots of platforms. WD set up is very easy too. Hope helpful.

**Q: Is there encryption on this and if so, can it be turned off? can you take an hdd out of this, put it in your pc and read it?**
A: Encryptions can be turned off or on.

**Q: Which Drives does this device come with?**
A: The device comes with 4 WD Red drives, each 4TB. In a Raid 5 setup, which seems to be the default, you will have 12TB available for storage.

**Q: Can 2 people edit from the same storage location using Adobe Lightroom at the same time?**
A: You can’t safely open a single Lightroom catalog from two computers concurrently - corruption would result. LR tries hard to ensure that it’s on local storage and not shared to prevent that.

It is absolutely possible to put the photos/exports etc. referenced by the catalog on a NAS, although edits will not automatically be shared.

In terms of performance, the NAS will deliver around 100MB/s (1Gbit/s minus protocol overhead). That’s about the same as a single low-spec 5400rpm hard drive in your machine, and much slower than modern NVMe SSDs, which have throughputs In excess of 3GB/s. It may not feel quite as snappy as the latter, but it’s still enough to push a few RAWs around a second.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent bit of kit.
*by S***Y on 22 March 2017*

Excellent bit of kit. Very quick and easy to setup. Easy to access and use once the small amount of leg work has been done. Sent all my backups to this device as it is more resilient than the portable HDD I have. It also has my music and picture collection stored and streams it to any DNLA capable device.
