WD My Cloud EX2 Ultra NAS Review

Post by Apoptosis »

WD launched their My Cloud EX2 dual-bay network-attached storage (NAS) series back in March 2014 and just last month announced that they were updating this popular model by releasing the My Cloud EX2 Ultra, a high-performance, two-bay network attached storage (NAS) system. The original My Cloud EX2 featured a Marvell A370 1.2GHz single-core SoC and 512MB of DDR3 RAM. That was respectable at the time, but prosumers today are looking for more power for multitasking and smooth HD video streaming. WD saw this coming though and upgraded the processor and memory...

Very nice baby NAS! This is great for people to finally back up their damn computers! Dunno why it is so hard for everyone to understand the importance of that. They find out fast when they have a failure and everything is lost though.

I wish storage would come down in price further so I could replace my 5, 3TB WD Red drives with 6TB ones in my Synology 1512+ but I am always looking to be cheap LOL

Yeah, time when SSDs cost as much as HDDs do now and HDDs are given away for free can't come soon enough! :)
