Home Security Camera With Free Cloud Storage

[Additional] Fairly easy to learn cloud storage features.

[16 TB] For all our storage needs - this is the solution! Not only is it reliable, it's one-stop shopping for our NAS and IP camera needs. Cloud storage is the new kid on the block - but this is the O.G when you want your data and videos in-house. I highly recommend it or its other siblings of different capacities.

[RJ45] This is a great machine for at home-easy-worry free-backups and data storage. Straight forward and easy to use.

[2 GB DDR4] I needed an off computer storage solution for our family during COVID-19 lockdown. The kids were home from college doing their work, my wife working from home as well as myself. I could have gone for a traditional NAS but had read a lot of reviews on unreliability and difficulty setting them up and maintaining them. Although My Cloud Home is a sort of NAS, my understanding was that its much easier to set-up and run. I decided to go with My Cloud Home vs. a traditional NAS setup and very happy I did. Setting the unit up was super simple with the WD application and easy to access from anywhere via the mobile and desktop applications. Everything I wanted to save transferred over perfectly without a hitch. You can set up folders for documents, photos or however you want to do it. The My Cloud Home connects directly to our Netgear router and runs off our home Wi-Fi 6 network. We're on Xfinity and have had the network go down several times since installing the My Cloud Home and it has started back up without any issues at all or loss of data. The only thing I would say is that I should have gone for the 8 or 10 Gig version and may very well upgrade later on. Not sure 3 Gigs (after splitting the 6 Gig memory into two) is going to be enough down the line. But for now were only about 10% full and have a long way to go. Ours is the two drive model so you can use all 6 Gigs like it's one drive, but you loose the double back-up if you set it up that way. I prefer to have a double back-up of the data. In terms of aesthetics the My Cloud Home is a very nice looking piece of kit. We have it out in the open were it can be seen and it looks very nice.... much nicer than the standard NAS industrial looking enclosure. All-in-all, with the set-up and accessibility taken into consideration I'm really pleased with the My Cloud Home. We've been running it a number of months now without any issues what so ever.

[USB Bus Power] I consider this an absolute necessity to back up all my files and photos. I admit I have issues with the security of the cloud. If someone can hack the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the cloud can be hacked.

[Two-Way] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this camera! It’s small, light and super high quality. The app is easy to use and both my husband and I can check in on the camera from anywhere. I really appreciate the high quality video stream with very minor delay. We’ve used this camera to check in on our baby while sleeping in different rooms and it’s so reassuring to see him in great detail and know that he’s safe and resting easy. We’ve also set it up as a security camera with the motion detection feature and it’s worked well too. I would love a 4 pack to add a full home video security system to our home.

[22 TB] Replaced a home camera security system that’s been running continuously since 2014. The hard drive in that system was a western digital purple drive. Unquestionable reliability is the reason another WD Purple drive was purchased for the new system.
