    2 of 5 Slow .... overheats ... software sucks Wednesday, May 28, 2008
    Silvy from Chicago, IL  

    The headline says it all this device is slow read/write speeds are terrible, the device is constantly overheating and the MioNet software it comes with is the worst ever. It takes around 5mnts to copy 1MB over, and I have a DSL connection at home. I would not recommend the device for people who want to stream music/video from it. If you are looking for a place to back-up your files then this device is ok for you. If you are looking to do some fancy stuff with it .. stay away!

    3 of 5 Works, despite Western Digital - Mio Tuesday, April 08, 2008
    Tim from Tiki, TX  
    Pleased with Buy.com, pleased with the WD hardware (so far). Bought 750GB MyBook World a week ago primarily as a backup drive for home computers. Didn't want to use EMC backup software, and wanted to avoid MioNet's monthly charges. I simply wanted my MS OneCare backup software to use it as a network drive to store my backups. --- Simple, right? --- No! --- WD's setup provides a network "drive" that is not recognized by other software programs. And when I contacted WD-Mio support, once I mentioned OneCare they took the easy escape and said "western does not provide support for third party backup utilities" and signed out. --- Silly me, I was trying to actually "use" their drive for something. I guess they thought I bought it as a blinking LED paperweight. --- Anyhow, I did muddle through, and all it really took was setting up an additional network share (and different drive letter) and peace was restored in the universe. --- I'm satisfied and recommend the product, but don't waste your time with WD-Mio's (non)support.

    3 of 5 Simple Monday, March 31, 2008
    A Customer from Seattle  
    Easy to set-up and quiet. However, extremely slow and doesn't seem to support power management. Doesn't automatically power-down when not in use after extended time, nor can I see how to set it too. I'd look for something better

    1 of 5 Not up to standard performance Monday, March 31, 2008
    hunguyen57 from Chantilly, VA  
    It took me a week to figure this out: Do not install the WD Everywhere software that came with the product since it uses your slow uplink to send data to a server and then back down to the NAS. For full back up this will take days; also there is no point to have your data residing in a server that you don't know anything about. I ended deinstalled WD Anywhere software and instead did what was suggested by searching Google: add the drive to the workgroup and set up as a network drive. Even so, the speed is more like 10 Gbps and not 100 Gbps for my home LAN. There are definitely better NAS products than this one. The cost performance trade off is not making it in my humble opinion.
