Accessing Your Cloud Remotely
Enabling Cloud Access for the WD My Cloud Mirror Device Configuring Cloud Access for a User Mobilizing Your Files with iOS and Android Mobile Apps
A personal cloud is your content, at home, secure and under your control. Unlike public clouds, a personal cloud allows you to keep all of your content in one safe place on your home network. Share files, stream media, and access your content anywhere, from your PC or Mac computer and from mobile devices. No monthly fees. No mysterious location for your data. Keep your videos, music, photos, and files safe at home and always with you.
This chapter explains how to set up the WD My Cloud Mirror device for remote access and describes some of the ways you can take advantage of its many capabilities.
Enabling Cloud Access for the WD My Cloud Mirror Device
Before you can use your WD My Cloud Mirror device remotely, it must be enabled for cloud access (enabled is the default). To verify that the WD My Cloud device is enabled for remote access and to check the status of its remote connection(s), see "Cloud Access" on page 108.
Configuring Cloud Access for a User

About Users

The Administrator, normally the device owner, is the person in charge of setting up the device. As the WD My Cloud Mirror device owner, you have a special user account (admin) that provides you with administrator privileges. With these privileges, you can set up and configure the device to your specific needs and add other users to your personal cloud. You also have the power to determine exactly what users can access on the device.
As a default, the administrator (admin) user name does not have a password. You can create one at anytime (see "Updating a User Password" on page 47).
Note: Only one individual at a time can use the Administrator logon ID to log into the web browser app. Because of this, ensure that you log out of the WD My Cloud Mirror device web browser app when you're not using it. This allows other users authorized to use the Administrator logon ID to access the web browser app.
See Energy Saver - Web Access Timeout on "Energy Saver" on page 109 to automatically log out of the app after a set amount of time.
The Users screen displays a list of the current users and allows the Administrator to view user details, create new users, create groups, and grant a user access to existing shares and groups.

Quota Rules
Assigning user quotas allows you to better control the disk space allocated to a user or a group. There are various rules dictating which quota takes precedent over another.
- User quota must be ≤ the group quota (e.g., if your group has a 20 GB quota and you try to set the user quota to 30 GB quota, you will be prompted to reduce your user quota to be equal to or less then the group quota).
If the user quota is not set, the group quota is assigned to the user. - When a user quota is set prior to the user joining a group and a group is assigned:
- If the user quota > group quota, the individual user's quota is automatically reduced to the group quota amount.
- If the user quota is ≤ group quota, the individual user quota remains unchanged.

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) allows you to store the same data in different places on multiple hard drives, providing necessary redundancy, greater performance, and data integrity. There are several different levels of RAID, each one providing a different method of sharing or distributing data among the drives. Your WD My Cloud Mirror device allows you to select from the following storage modes:
Note: The difference between a drive and a volume is that a volume can be a single drive or multiple drives.
| RAID Mode Description | |
| JBOD | The use of one or more drives not in a RAID configuration but managed as separate logical volumes. |
| Spanning | Combination of drives in a linear fashion to create one large logical volume. |
| RAID 0 | RAID 0 mode provides disk striping across all drives in the RAID drive group. RAID 0 does not provide data redundancy but does provide the best performance of any RAID level. RAID 0 breaks up data into smaller segments and stripes the data segments across each drive in the drive group. |
| RAID 1(default) | In RAID 1 mode, the RAID controller duplicates all data from one drive to a second drive in the drive group. RAID 1 provides complete data redundancy but cuts the required storage capacity in half. |
Viewing the Current RAID Mode
Use the following steps to view the RAID mode currently used on your device.
- On the navigation bar, click Storage to display the Storage screen.
- Click RAID, if not already selected.

Media Servers
WD My Cloud Mirror is designed to serve as your home's media server. It enables you to stream photos, music, and videos to your DLNA-compatible devices and music to your iTunes-compatible devices.
Both DLNA-compatible and iTunes-compatible devices search for media stored in any Public share that has media serving enabled. By default, DLNA Media is disabled. Once you enable it on the Settings > Media Server page, the media serving for the Public share is also automatically enabled. For all other shares, the media serving remains off.
If you do not want DLNA to display specific media files, place them in a private share that is set to disable media sharing. (See “Making a Share Private” on page 54.)
Media Server Overview
The WD My Cloud Mirror device uses TwonkyMedia as its DLNA media server. It streams your music, photos and videos to compatible devices in your home. Playing media on a compatible device is easy.
The media server searches for all the media stored in the Public share on the WD My Cloud Mirror device connected to your home network. After enabling media serving for the device (see "Enabling DLNA and iTunes" on page 98), you can just transfer your multimedia content to the Public share on your WD My Cloud Mirror device, and you are ready to stream and view content on your home entertainment center, game consoles (for example, Xbox 360 ^ or PlayStation ^ 3), WD TV Live ^ media player, or DLNA ^ 1.5 digital media adapters), and other PC computers on your home or office network. Visit http://www.dlna.org for further information on DLNA.
iTunes Overview
You or anyone connected to the WD My Cloud Mirror device can use iTunes to play stored music files. iTunes creates a virtual music library on the device and treats it as an iTunes repository, making it possible to stream music files from the WD My Cloud Mirror device to Windows or Mac computers running iTunes.
iTunes scans any shares that have the Media Serving setting enabled, including the Public share by default.

The iTunes Media Server supports the following file extensions: FLAC, M4A, MP3, MP4A and WAV.
Note: Some devices may not support playback of all these files. Please refer to your device's user manual to see which formats are supported.
Media Storage
You can access and store media content on the WD My Cloud Mirror device by means of network shares. Shares, similar to folders or directories, are areas set up to organize media and access them from your network. Shares can be shared with everyone (public) or with selected users on your network (private).
The device comes pre-configured with the Public network share, which contains the following folders for media storage:
- Shared Music—Stores music files you want to share with other users.
- Shared Pictures—Stores image files you want to share with other users.
- Shared Videos—Stores video files you want to share with other users.
Note: You will notice that the Public share's Shared Music and Shared Pictures shares contain mirrored and uploaded subfolders. These folders are needed by Twonky 7.2. You can now upload all media types to the uploaded subfolder from a DLNA client with "upload" capability.
Go to the Twonky configuration site (NAS_IP:9000) to aggregate content from all NAS devices with DLNA capability on your network to the mirrored folder. Uploading and mirroring are best left to expert users, as these features are not supported by WD customer support.
Enabling DLNA and iTunes
The Media page of the Settings Screen allows you to enable or disable the DLNA and iTunes media servers. Media server utilities for re-scanning the NAS or fully rebuilding the DLNA database are also on the Media page.

Network UPS
An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is a device that works off of a battery and keeps devices that are connected to the UPS port running for at least a short time if the main power source goes out. When a WD My Cloud Mirror device is connected via USB to the network drive the drive will automatically shut down when the UPS is drained to a specified percentage.
Communication with the WD My Cloud Mirror device is done using a master/slave protocol in which the master device controls the slave devices.
When the UPS is connected to the WD My Cloud Mirror device by the USB, the device automatically becomes a UPS Network Master. Other WD My Cloud devices that are connected to that UPS can be pointed to the IP address of the UPS Master. If the UPS is discharged to the specified percentage, all of the WD My Cloud Mirror slave drives will automatically shut down properly.
To set up network UPS:
