Hi, I have picked up a 4tb single bay mycloud. Its running firmware 2.30.172.
Is this a gen2? Can I enable app installs on this model? Any thing else i can do with it? A link to any guides for hacking and getting the most out of it would be much appeciated!
Thanks for all your help!
Yes v2.x firmware on the single bay My Cloud unit is second gen. Use the forum search feature, magnifying glass icon upper right, to find numerous past discussions on adding unofficial apps and enabling the apps tab.
Here is one such discussion that can be found using the forum search feature:
Thanks ever so much!
Now have plex and transmission installed and running great!
Performance is suprisingly good, i assume it wont try to transcode? Infact i wonder if that can be disabled?
Plex doesn’t officially support transcoding on certain My Cloud devices. See the following for more information.
