Jay Rates Everything

 Well it is finally here. I have been looking for a place to store and back up my family pictures as well as important documents such as tax returns and other financial and personal documents so I have been looking into getting my own personal cloud. After a good bit or research I decided to go with the Western Digital EX2. I happened to get the 8TB size but you can chose from a wide array of sizes including getting a bare box and adding your own dives to it. You can find the detail and link to them here:  https://shop.westerndigital.com/c/nas-and-cloud-storage The nice thing about the unit was how easy it is to setup and get up an running. This is definitely not a high workload system but much more geared towards the end home/home office user. In addition to the normal local access you can have at home you are also able to setup to look at your files at the  MyCloud.com  website or you can download the "My Cloud" mobile app.  As for Specs The unit comes with a Marvell ARMADA

 Short review for today, I needed to extend my wireless coverage to the back yard. My son likes to listen to music when we are playing outside and lets just say his music tastes are not on my vast library of stuff I was able to get on Napster. So we use youtube and spotify to play songs and a few data overages later I decided we needed an upgrade. I didn't need anything super fast just, 300Mbps speed is plenty fine but I did want to have coverage over the entire back yard. I also wanted a POE solution so I just had to worry about burring one cable and the low voltage makes it safer as well since I ended up mounting it on his playhouse.      Installation was a snap, a few screws into the mounting plate and plug in the CAT6 cable and it was installed. Once I verified I had power I logged into the  Omada APP and was able to find and setup the WAP in a few minutes.      Right now about 15% of the total network band width is using this access point so I'm pretty happy with it.
