Yes, it can very easily be used as a web server - but you don’t have to load it with Apache or anything. It comes pre-loaded with the lighttpd web server (which is very similar to Apache but has a smaller memory footprint and is a more nimbler web server). You do have to make a couple small changes first - see my post → http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-My-Cloud-EX2/Share-your-files-with-friends-using-http-links/td-p/785417
Also, see my followup post about security implications if you do choose to use it as a web server…see → http://community.wd.com/t5/WD-My-Cloud-EX2/Enabling-logging-for-lighttpd-web-server/td-p/788667
