I have done it in the past, though I've usually used such devices with a Mac (which handle them easily, but the WD Cloud is crap at individual users owning their own files). If the device is set up properly (there's user-account options available in its webpage interface), then they support Samba (SMB) and can support NFS, can support FTP. Some may even have a rudimentary file browser in their webpage interface. If you're at the end of your tether, you can disassemble the cloud device, and plug the hard drive into a spare SATA port on your computer, or use one of those SATA to USB adaptors, and just mount the drive. I've done that with a cloud that bricked itself, plugged it into my Linux box, and double-clicked the icon that appeared on the desktop for the large partition, and the system mounted it for me. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1127.19.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Aug 25 17:23:54 UTC 2020 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
