Can I connect 7 PC on WD My Cloud 2TB?

Hi, I have an question before buying WD My Cloud 2TB. Can I connect 7 PC which are on same home network on switch IN THE SAME TIME? Thank you.

Sure.

And it wont drop someone out, are you sure it can handle 7 PCs working on drive at the same time?

you will all share the same bandwidth and resources on the mycloud. so if you are all streaming HD movies at the same time it could be an issue. more modest use such as editing files or backing up the PC won’t be an issue.

Gigabit LAN will help minimize any issues

what usage to you anticipate?

Define exactly what you mean by “working on.”

Copying files from / to mapped drive wd to 7 pc at the same time i mean…

that won’t be an issue. each PC will do the copy somewhat slower then if one did it at a time do to shared resources. A copy won’t be impacted by slight delays other then using a little more time
