Joshua,
OK. You partly got me on my NAS.
Personally, I choose NOT to dabble again into the
"Cloud" discussion.
If you choose to call my personal NAS MY personal
"Cloud," then, FINE. Sux 2B U. I have one. U do not.
I do not view my NAS as anything close to what we talk
about the "Cloud."
At no time can U talk to my NAS! (but, I am willing to accept
your attempts)
Because I do not fully understand, I backed out of the 'Cloud'
discussion some time back............. :)
Yes.
I have to monitor the pair of hd's in my NAS.
Big Dill.
I have to monitor all my other hd's also. All of them
do the same duty.
Best,
Duncan

cloud storage has its place for things like mobile use but it is still
limited by the high cost low bandwidth on mobile devices.
on the same topic who's to say that having a NAS is not cloud storage for
your home network in which case bandwith is cheap and fast. truly worthwhile
external drives are still sky high expensive where were talkin raid 5, more
then 1 bay, and network accessible without a pc host. cost of said externals
is why I still use a 12 bay tower case as my workstation and serve up 6+
drives from that to my network.

Maybe it is as Duncan suggests....get them addicted to lots and lots of
cheap storage...frankly, I like that idea.
Lots of people have been predicting the death of disc drives with the
onset of cloud services....well, not if I have anything do say about
it. Apparently WD has that same notion! :)
WD is the pusher man!

Lol, random Google shopper search. Seems it was not representative of
real
prices.
Looks like $120 is more accurate which brings us back to sane pricing of
ext
costing more than int. Even the elements 2TB is $99+.
