I've been looking around at other models of hard drive, the bottom has
fallen out of the market it seems, in Australia yo ucan buy a 6TB USB
3.0 drive for $200 so - at prices like these - go your hardest! store
your music in high quality FLAC audio etc and - over time - retire them
older hard drives that don't have the speed.

Totally agree here. I recently purchased the 4tb model to replace my old DLink
nas that bit the dust and the difference in speed is impressive. The interface
is great as long as you use the html interface. I paid $$180 for it from Amazon
and it's been well worth it.
Best regards,

Subject: WD My Cloud For Storing Audio
Hi!
I recently bought one of these drives and my only comment is that I'm
really sorry I didn't buy one earlier.
The WD My Cloud has a whole variety of uses including the storage and
sharing of audio/video files around your house using DLNA and so on.
Before the WD My Cloud drive came along I was using USB drives hanging
off the Asus RTN56U rooter, whilst this method of sharing media was
affective the speed was very slow.
With the WD My Cloud connected directly to the Rooter I've fround speed
has increased even to the point where the WD My Cloud can be carrying
out several data operations at one time without any drop in performance,
for example a backup from the Windows PC and the Mac can be going on
whilst you access your favourite tracks from a Playlist with your
Android Phone or whatever.
The following review outlines and describes many of the drives capabilities.
