Re: jaws 2018 and thinking to buy a NAS

Just a warning about WD MyCloud products. I have a MyCloud EX4 and have found some parts of the interface are inaccessible with JFW at least. More importantly, despite Western Digital being a large complany, the product has a history of serious internet vulnerabilities. Two in recent years allow someone  to take control remotely and the 2nd is still on-going. So much so, users are being told to unplug them from the internet.

Hi Daan,

I use a device in the MyCloud series from Western Digital and it works well.

I don't know how it compares features-wise with the companies you mention, though my needs are relatively basic.

Cheers,

Ed

Hello,

I am currently using jaws 2018 and want to buy a NAS. Since
accessibility of the interface of the NAS is very important I send
this message to the group to ask if there is someone to help me to
choose the most accessible NAS system.

I read Synology is a good company that makes NAS systems with cool
features and a big app store. I am wondering if the interface of "disk
station" is accessible and also are the extra apps also accessible.

Are there other NAS systems like QNAP or Netgear also accessible?

Thanks
Regards
Daan
