How can I back up *from* My Passport Wireless Pro to an attached USB drive?

Hope you’re having a great time with your My Passport Wireless Pro

Thanks Alex. In general I am quite happy with the device. I think that the user interface could be improved on a number of fronts. This issue is one of them. Another general problem revolves around its use as an access point; I had mixed results. A third issue for me is the timestamps recorded in the SD Imports (Incorrect timestamps on SD Card Imports). I have been advised by @G_Rayn to open a ticket and will do so when I have a bit more free time.

As a feature request, I would like to be able to have the “backup to cloud” interface modified to be a more general “backup” interface where “the cloud” is just one possible target but a drive attached to the USB3 interface might be another. The bottom line is that a single backup is not enough for my application and it would be nice if this device made it easier for me to manage the second backup.

I hope that WD continues to improve the software software for this device.

Thank you,
Keith
