MyCloud synch question

There have been other versions of this question asked, but I never saw a response that really answered the question fully.

I have a 4TB Personal MyCloud in our small shop. We run it on the network and it works great serving files to a small number of devices in a mixed Mac/PC environment. We can drag and drop files and open up files to work on them “over the network” which is a huge time saver.

I have another small shop with a small number of devices, and while it’s great to be able to access the files remotely via the MyCloud app, the app itself has a terrible interface - drag and drop is a joke on this app if you’re used to using Mac Finder/ Windows Explorer. This drive is also the only place where files are stored, since I’m telling everyone in our shop not to keep files on their personal laptops or on workstations, but to upload them to the NAS.

I’d like to add a 2nd MyCloud to our other shop and have the two synchronize files automatically. Then we could have the same network functionality at our other shop and also have some redundancy in case one of the drives croaks.

Any ideas here? Please do NOT suggest Dropbox I hate those people with the burning passion of 100,000 suns.

Thank you,

Greg

Hi and welcome to the WD community.

On this case if you have 2 of this devices you wont be able to sync them remotely, however there are other models of this device that have this capability you can try and check them out see if this is what you are looking for:
