Like many others, my WD My Cloud 4TB (along with BTSync) was crippled since the automatic firmware upgrade to v4.00.00-607 . BTSync was killed every time I tried to start it. I patiently waited many weeks hoping WD would make a firmware update to fix the problem.
I finally pulled the trigger to downgrade the firmware using the " Easy Method" in the other thread. The process made sense (simple version number edit to fool the firmware update checking). After rebooting (with automatic update turned off), I had to SSH (I am by no means proficient in Linux, but this worked for me, so try at your own risk) in and start BTSync again by typing:
/shares/Public/./btsync
BTSync started and I used the web browser interface and it eventually showed all my previous sync folders and started indexing them again. So far so good.
Edit: I haven’t tried restarting my WD My Cloud yet (to see if I have to redo the " install script so BTsync automatically restart" from the first post of this thread. I will let BTSync do its indexing, then restart and give it a try.
