NAS Brand/Models Poll

Your model is a single drive My Cloud, which has a different install methodogy.

Currently, it is not on the recommended list for Channels DVR, but I’m sure dev’s would be interested if you can at least utilize as DVR & recordings. I use a Mac for DVR and single drive MyCloud for recordings storage.

This is a single drive model. It is not the PR4100.

This model does not meet the minimum requirements for Channels DVR.

See WDMyCloud Single Drive

Thanks, I’ll get a better model. But that’s why I quoted @OurFamilySpot with that exact model in my first post and asked how he installed it since I have one doing nothing.

I’m running Channels DVR on a Seagate NAS 4-Bay STCU100 with 4 4TB drives with Seagate’s SimplyRAID & Firmware ver 4.2.12.0. Runs great!

i originally had a single drive WD MyCloud that i used with the SiliconDust DVR beta, but have moved to the WD PR4100. The single bay WD MyClouds are below minimum spec for the Channels DVR.

When the original request/query was made it is what i had.

Sorry for the confusion, i was thought the context was on how to install on the WD PR4100. Missed that you were referring back to the WDBCTL0040HWT-NESN.
