Will the WD M圜loud EX2 Ultra suffice for me under the following conditions:ġ. Only my 4k TV or the Shield/Android Box will be accessing it for playback at any given time (apart from that my I will downloading torrents to the NAS directly) I will not have any other devices that need to access the NAS for movie playback. My goal is to have the NAS work and serve for just LOCAL network play only. I am wanting to remove the LAPTOP from the mix and want to buy a NAS drive. I recently started using PLEX after hearing so much about it Installed it on the laptop and this also seems to run without issue, apart from the initial starting buffer and then smooth sailing all the way. If I copy the highest file size to a portable HDD (Transcend 2TB) and play it form the TV or Android box, that works fine too. Running movies of the highest bitrates are no problem with the current setup.

The connections between all devices are Gigabit Ethernet.(minus the Denon)

I am running KODI on the laptop which then creates a library available to my TV via DLNA and on the Android Box, this is accessible via the UPNP option. The average file size ranges between 10gb - 80gb.

My laptop has my 4k Ultra/BlueRay/1080 movies stored in the 2 TB drive. So whatever my decision is, it needs to be 100% confirmed that it will work for me… My questions are in reference to the WD My Cloud EX2 Ultra (Running 2x 4Tb WD RED drives)Ī Core i5/16 GB RAM based laptop with 2 Tb HDD (5400 rpm)ĭenon x3500H for Atmos/DTS X and other playbacks Where I live, we cannot return a product once purchased and have a 1 Year warranty as compared to 3 years (available in other countries.) Also, the prices are marked up at least 30-40 percent on top of the actual USD value.

I ran out of reviews to watch and after finding no helpful answers to my question, I finally decided to make an account here at WD and ask you guys for help.
