Spelling correction for next update

My Cloud OS 3 Personal & Network Attached Storage My Cloud EX4

I just bought a new EX4 with 16TB.  So far I love it, for the most part.  The control panel is certainly a big improvement over my 6TB Duo. 

However, I was disappointed it was already pre-formatted for RAID 5, which I didn’t realize until after I transferred and wiped all the data from my Duo drive.  So instead of doubling my capacity I only added 50%, and it’s definately not worth the money I paid for only 4TM more.  A

WD - there is a spelling error under “Device Maintenance”.  My machine says the Device Uptime is “0 day 14 hourss 5 minutes”.  There is one too many “s” in “hours”.

Thanks for your feedback!

WD Support can help you change your device to RAID 0 mode, which will give you the full 16TB volume without the protection of fault tolerance.  ( http://support.wdc.com))
