WD My Book Live Duo user reviews (6 TB)

Pros Was easy to setup. Easy access to the drives. Web page setup and administration is very easy. Good mobile apps (using Android and Apple) Works with time machine. Raid capable for data integrity. Has some potential

Cons DLNA has issues. Sony BD and Win Media player cannot stream video. DLNA works great on the Android (both phone and tablet) and IPhone. Performance is not the best. Use a couple of databases stored on the NAS and they run significantly slower.

Summary I purchased this when my Seagate Blackarmor NAS 110 failed (BA). I liked the ability to be able to swap out drives (BA will not let you in there). I also wanted the RAID capability. The apps for Iphone and Android were another selling point. But am extremely disappointed in the DLNA issues. I had no issues whatsoever with the BA but cannot stream at all with the WD. Performance with using the drive as a server is also a negative. But it looks like it will be stable and the RAID is a major selling point.
