Please note that WD Smartware is not going to backup the system files.
Also, keep in mind that actual transfer rates can vary based on your local area network topology, hard drive disk read/write speeds, system activity, and length of cable. To achieve maximum transfer rates, we recommend using Giga-bit network devices, because your transfer rates will only be as fast as your slowest network component.
So if you have a router or the ethernet port on your that is not Giga-bit the tranfer will be slower than the expected for the drive.
