WD My Cloud OS3 End of Service [westerndigital.com]
I wasn't able to confirm if this device uses / supports XFS. If not, a device like this will NOT protect your data from bit rot even if using raid. Raid is NOT the right tool for long term STORAGE!
Let me bottom line it for you. I've lost many family members and the closest thing I have of these loved ones are these photos and videos. It's all I have left. Raid has its place, but only short term storage.
If you want long term storage, you should suck it up and buy apple / Google / Amazon storage. For one monthly payment, your protecting yourself from fires/floods/acts of god/theft/ransomeware, etc.This stuff happens!!
In that fee, you're paying them to make sure bit rot doesn't eat your data, they are replacing drives that fail and have security engineers 24 x 7 making sure you have the latest patches and security updates. They are updating the Android / iPhone apps to always work with all future updated phones and versions. You have support if you have issues. You're also paying somone to protect the servers.
Lastly, exposing anything to the internet is dangerous but if want to share the files, you need to. If you want to backup from anywhere you need to.
Your monthly fee also pays security people to make sure this is secure as well. They are experts. How fast does WD release updates? For how long? You get more and more storage for the same price over time and that's an investment as well.
This stuff is too valuable! This stuff is a battle of attrition and how long are you going to keep up with it before human nature costs you something you can't ever fix or get back?
I never understood the value and yes, there are devices like syncology, which are amazing, and support xfs to protect from bit rot, but won't protect you from human nature.
Your family will Thank you.

Also, not sure if they have had any improvements on their app as that was crappy and had connection issues accessing the drive over the wifi
