I can’t understand why this thread is not getting any attention from the people at WD. They must be monitoring, right?
I have been waiting patiently a long time for this software upgrade because in principle Smartware is just what I want: it is simple, effective and free. Unfortunately it is also driving me crazy because it slows everything else down unacceptably.
I think that if WD can’t get it right they should withdraw it because releasing poor software is bad for the company’s reputation. The best of all worlds would be to do a deal with a good piece of backup software and bundle that with their drives. Such a deal would probably not cost more than the money they spend on developing Smartware.
