WD OS5 more like OS0 Been happy using WD mycloud products for years, unfortunately now have a paperweight due to OS5 firmware update, cannot go back, and has been indexing everything for over two weeks now. running at max CPU,RAM. Drive no longer responsive, cannot access anything remotely or locally. WD only answer is to turn off indexing. This stops cloud access! Device is therefore no longer working as advertised. Why everything has to be indexed is beyond me. Files folders worked perfectly well. Someone needs to be fired at WD for this. I will never buy WD again and recommend everyone keeps well clear of these cowboys.

I agree with previous BAD reviews of… I agree with previous BAD reviews of terrible service on technical support. I have an old WD external hard drive which now seems to be 'dead' - all I wanted to know was if/where/ I could get it looked at to see if possible to retrieve the data. First call - phone went dead after speaking to an agent for 1 minute; 2nd and third calls - after going through the rigmarole of the voicemails and pressing '1''2' etc, the line went dead. On account of this,I shall never buy their products again.

Unpatriotic, but drives work fine Honestly I'm pretty upset that they don't offer military discount but they seem to have student and senior discounts. Just seems unpatriotic. I'll check in with Seagate I guess. I only gave 2 stars because my hard drives I have now work well (6TB 7200 Pro). Though my WD ex cloud ultra seems to have fan issues after 6 months. Contacted support who asked that I update the firmware. Didn't work.

You will lose you data if you buy WD products! Do yourself a favor and never buy anything from this company. WD's programming error left their storage drives vulnerable to hacking and they only allowed requests for data recovery for one month! And they are offering a rebate so we can buy more of their vulnerable products and lose more data. What a joke! Shame on them for not standing behind their products.

Terrible company Terrible company, for a tech business web site is a nightmare. Previously used so had a log in, yet would not work, kept flashing up add as business customer (I am not) had to leave site to get in again, had to do password reset, they had sent a discount voucher code if you confirm your email, that failed. Eventually got the code, found the hard drives I wanted added the code price went UP so the 10% could be discounted making the cost higher than it started at. Had to clear web site to return again to add items, and but so many error messages, Proxy error etc eventually got my order done, went to leave a review and saw how many other bad reviews, clearly this company have no interest in customer service or dealing with issues, will not use them again, if my eq arrives!!
