This is often normal. You correct it via the SSH program you are using to access the WD My Cloud. The SSH program (at least Putty) will popup a warning message indicating the host key (on the WD My Cloud) has changed and it gives the person the option to update that key on the client machine. Check your SSH program and see if it explains how to update the host key.
