Got the issue resolved. The Activity was due to DLNA Database rebuild.

Steps: In WD Dashboard

  1. Switch off DLAN and Itunes in Settings
  2. Restart WD Mirror.
  3. Go back to DLNA and Turn it on.
  4. Click Rebuild Data Base. (Takes time depending on Media content and size)
  5. Check CPU and Memory activities

This should bring down the CPU and Memory utilisation.
