![]() ![]() This is the best NAS for the average person who wants a straightforward device. Unusually for a device that’s just about as easy to set up as an ordinary external hard drive, it also comes with advanced security features. ![]() Other handy features include efficiently scheduling backups from multiple devices and sharing files with others by creating private links.

It is an idea for USERS of WD upper tier NAS devices to consider doing, because it is cool and it works! This is the most appropriate forum in which to alert a lot of users of the products.
