Ah sorry, no I've turned all the share folders to private and I assign access rights for users to each folder.

Each user - by default - has their own folder on the drive as well as access to any share you wish to assign them to.

public off and assign full access, read only access or deny access.

The Public is exactly that and can't be changed.

Are you leaving your shared folders as public or have you turned
public off? When I turn public off and choose full access I'm denied
access to the folder.

Hmm, the RTN16U is getting a little old now as is the current RTN56U
offering I'm using, I'm planning an upgrade to an RTAC87U later on this
year which will give me better performance still when
listening/streaming audio files.

Don't know much about Netgear stuff, I guess we'reall creatures of habit
but I do know one thing, if you want to optimize everything then stay
away from all those pieces of equipment that promise you the world in
one box.

Agreed, the router can also be a big factor. I recently replaced my

rt-n16u with a NetGear R7000 also referred to as the NightHawk which
also
has some terrific ratings. It performs like a champ.

Exactly, a lot of the earlier devices were under powered when it came
to
processing.

There are other factors of course, the Rooter itself for example.

I don't want to appear to be boasting but it would seem that -
according
to all the Rooter reviews I've studied - that I have one of the best
Rooters around today which is an Asus RTN56U which can handle 300,000
data operations per second, there are better of course but at $100 when
I bought it 2 years ago? Well I couldn't be happier.

Hi, I can only compare to my DLink 321 with it's gigabyte Ethernet
connection. The difference in performance was huge, literally like
night
and day. Both the MyCloud and the DLink were gigabyte connections so I
imagine the big difference would be attributed to the much better
processor on the MyCloud.

Very interesting to read this review and the comments about its
performance.  One question of anyone who has used a NAS drive in the
past...generally, does the WD My Cloud offer improved performance
over,
say, a Netgear NAS drive? I appreciate there are many factors which
would
affect such a comparison but I'd appreciate anyone's gut-feel for this
-
certainly, the ease of use and interface of this drive seems to be far
better than my current Netgear but wonder if it's worth swapping over
from a performance point of view!

Thanks
Richard Bartholomew

Hi!

I recently bought one of these drives and my only comment is that I'm
really sorry I didn't buy one earlier.

The WD My Cloud has a whole variety of uses including the storage and
sharing of audio/video files around your house using DLNA and so on.

Before the WD My Cloud drive came along I was using USB drives hanging
off the Asus RTN56U rooter, whilst this method of sharing media was
affective the speed was very slow.

With the WD My Cloud connected directly to the Rooter I've fround
speed
has increased even to the point where the WD My Cloud can be carrying
out
several data operations at one time without any drop in performance,
for
example a backup from the Windows PC and the Mac can be going on
whilst
you access your favourite tracks from a Playlist with your Android
Phone
or whatever.

The following review outlines and describes many of the drives
capabilities.
