How much cloud storage do they give you?

As used in this context, 'cloud storage' is misleading. The actual storage capacity is determined by the size of the drive, either 2TB or 3TB. It's only 'cloud' storage in the sense that you can access it from anywhere you are as long as the WD drive is connected to a network that's connected to the internet.

You are actually creating your own cloud. So the size of the cloud is the size of the external hard drive. You can access the hard drive (your personal cloud) from anywhere on the internet. It can be confusing, but you are not going to a cloud owned by a company, you are going to your personal hard drive from anywhere - making it your own personal cloud.

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.

Several...Depends on your storage needs. If u max out storage on 1 PC, there won't b room for 2nd PC. However...it worked first few times & now it only works after I plug & unplug it several times. VERY ANNOYING. I had an older version of this product & it worked perfect. This, newer, device is going back ASAP. Also, this does not backup "everything" as someone else mentioned. If you hav files it does not recognize (I.e. files with an extension it does not recognize - like I have - you have to know to TELL it to back up files with this extension).

You likely already figured it out by now but for others searching for answers it more likely than not as it should average about 119gb of data. I did have a pny turbo that had 126gb of data but when encountered errors with it the represenative told me 128 drives average between 115-119gb of data so is likely that one was corrupted. . .

Correction it would probably be about 8 hours usually about 4 GB per hour but it does vary.

You might not even need one, I'd look at you storage space available, I added a 4GB just for the heck of it.

a chromebox is intended to store most of a user's data in the cloud, not on the "hard drive". so a 16GB hard drive should be more than sufficient.

Sorry Rissa, not really sure on that. I just know 64GB is huge, probly bigger storage than any of us ever need, ha. I HaVe just sold this though & will be removing it. Thanks for contact tho, cheers:)

1 TB. That's a whole lot more than 1 GB. You'll be able to hold a lot of pics and movies with all that space!

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.

Well If I am not mistaking, it was only 500 Mb of apps installed because right now I do have more than a Gb with stuff I have installed, there is plenty of space on 16Gb to add your personal MP3, movies, pics, apps, etc.

Depends on the amount of data that you are backing up. Otherwise you can use it back up from multiple PCs

I'm not really sure , but I have a 16 GB in it. And that holds quite a bit.

This could be a question for Dell rather than me but I've never got anywhere near the 320Gb anyway. I have a feeling it could be a total of 500 but split in some way with a backup of 180?

I just popped into my Note 3. Recognized and working. It's actually magic, though. I don't think it really does anything. I mean, really, think about it. 64 GIGA-bytes on a sliver of something smaller than and same thickness as my thumbnail?!!! My first computer had 100 MB storage and I thought I was in fat city. Back then 1 GB cost $1000 IF you could even get it. I know a little about how such things are made and I just cannot believe modern tech. It is insane. If I sneezed during install (2 second job), I would have lost the thing in the carpet, perhaps never to be found.

I don't think you will run out. I have the 15 camera system so I have 500MB but when I had the 5 camera system I never came close to using all the storage. I usually look at everything once our twice a day and delete it all. I usually look at a motion event when it happens and I get the email, then delete later. You will need to have the sensitivity set high to pick up motion from the cats. I have outside cameras too and if I have them set over 50% they will pick up cars going bi up to 100 yards away, and also on a partly cloudy day will react to the shadow of a cloud.
