Western Digital 'MyCloud' Is Down 5 Days and Counting

Posted by Unknown on Monday March 31, 2014 @06:59PM from the personal-cloud-is-really-working-out dept.

Nemo the Magnificent (2786867) writes "A friend of mine bought a Western Digital 'MyCloud' NAS server (non-RAID) a couple of weeks ago. WD implements the cloud service through its wd2go.com site. He reports that that site is down and has been since last Wednesday. No word on when it'll be back up. The only official announcements are daily repeats of this canned posting: 'Our My Cloud and My Book Live users are experiencing intermittent issues with WD servers that enable remote access when using these products. These issues include poor transfer speeds and/or inability to connect remotely. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and we are working very hard to resolve these issues and resume normal service as soon as possible. We thank you for your patience and will provide updates as they are available.'"

WD ordered some parts to be replaced a few weeks ago, parts coming from Malaysia. The aircraft suffered some delay but everything is under control.
