However, once the backup is started it comes up with a dialog box saying its starting and that I can close the screen. OK, so now when I type the IP address into Acronis as the backup location it does allow me to select the Public folder and create a target sub-folder 'Acronis Backups' as the destination folder. Ideally I would have liked to back my operating system C: drive up to a private 'share' together with some of my data files and back the rest of my data up to a public share so that I could securely access them over the internet! In Explorer if I click on the above sub-folder of the cloud drive it shows me both the Family 'share' and the new Public 'share' that I created for Acronis to back up to, as I read somewhere that it can't back up to the Family share. I have also now found a disk on my network but it is shown as a sub folder on my PC as: I have checked my router via a mobile app and it shows me that the M圜loudHome is on 192.168.1.10 and when I type \192.168.1.10 into my Windows Explorer it shows me the public 'share' on the MY Cloud Home. I have tried all this and in fact when I got WD Tech Help to access my computer they could not find it like that!

One of these is the default name which the online technical manual states is:

I would not suggest that anyone buys this device!Īs mentioned in my first posting, there are numerous differences between the WD M圜loud and M圜loud Home. I believe that WD has messed up what was basically a good product in the WD M圜loud. Neither Explorer nor Acronis can find it! And that's after enabling SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support whic is what Microsoft disabled as considered a security threat! However, I cannot get the WD M圜loud Home visible on my network and cannot connect to it using Windows Explorer or Acronis \MYCLOUD- last 6 digits of the serial number. I have now got the M圜loud Home visible in Windows explorer and mapped to my Z:Drive by running a program called WD Discovery at startup ! I want to use my Acronis True Image 2018 to backup a disk partition image file of my C: drive plus file backups of my D: and E: drives.so that I can get access to the some of these data files over the internet when I am out of my offfice. I then have a 1TB HDD D: drive with my data files on and a new 3TB E: drive which is virtually empty where I want to store all my photos and home movies etc.

I have a C: drive which is a 500GB SSD drive with my Win10 opearting system, Office and a host of other software on it. I have just bought a My Cloud Home 6TB to specifically back up my complete computer. This does not affect WD My Cloud (no Home) devices

To answer a previous question, a WD My Cloud Home is totally different to a M圜loud and it sounds like WD were relying on some netwroking software that Microsoft has switched off in their later releases after the Creator release that prevents the WD MyDrive from being discovered as a network drive.
