Does it have auto and cloud backup

Ed is just for backing up files from your computer so you save storage space on your computer. Icloud is just an internet virtual storage for files . I believe 2 gig free and you pay if you need more space.

I am not sure what you are asking but I will try to answer. Mac files I.e. Pages, numbers, keynote, etc are backed up to your iCloud account. This drive at least in my case is used to store files I am working on to save Mac "disk" storage. To back the data stored on the WD passport up to the cloud you may well be required to purchase space via a cloud company.

I have an MBR1400 at home and do not use the cloud service. So you're good there without it.

Mine came with the backup software already on the drive. It is part of the setup.

I don't use the auto cloud backup - I prefer to use a safe deposit box (I rotate 2 WD drives on a regualr basis). The cost of cloud storage really depends on how much data you have, Dropbox gives you 2GB and it's easy to earn a lot more free storage from them.

Yes. I assume you mean I Tunes or something like that. You would download the software from their site to your computer. The Cloud is an internet based server that holds information or songs or movies, whatever. You login from the internet to gain access to the cloud.

Sorry, I am no help ... I have never tried to use the cloud backup. I reformatted the drives for OS X and use one as a Time Machine backup and the other as just a media storage device.

All depends on your setting. If you set it to do continuous backup, t will back up everytime there is a change. You can set thethe programm to back up every time you shut down the computer or once a day at a specific time.

Yes it does. It will come formatted with FAT32, so you will have to change it to NTFS, but it is possible.

No it doesn't. That's not one of the features with this model. But there is one that has storage with it. I think it's one of the newer models.

It doesn't have to have one. If you do create one it will backup your config every night and it can upgrade your unit automatically. There are also a lot of apps that you can load onto the unit to expand its capabilities and many of these need internet access.

Yes It is a personal cloud. You can store any type of file. But the biggest advantage is with multimedia files.

I just leave it connected to my computer and backup once a day using time machine. There's no charge that I'm aware of for the cloud back-up.

Yes, if You use the Software Included with the Portable Hard Drive, and set it up accordingly, You Just have to press the Button on top of the hardrive, and automatic backup is set! the Backup software included sucks though, you might what to do it your self with winrar, or use acronis true image home 2013/2014.

No. It syncs to its cloud service that you access from an app on your phone or through the web portal.
