WEB INTERFACE PART 2

Via the current (stock) installed apps the My Cloud Ex4 supports HTTP downloads and P2P BitTorrent downloads (you can download files directly to the NAS) and can be also configured as an FTP server (you can create and monitor FTP accounts, setup access permissions, throttle bandwidth, manage IP blocking and use FXP).

Every setting regarding the NAS itself is placed under the Settings tab and from the General page you can change the name of the NAS, setup the time and language and you can also enable/disable cloud access, energy saving modes and time machine (MAC) backups.

Network related settings like services, windows services, remote server feature and port forwarding are all located inside the Network page.

Inside the media page you can enable streaming of media to all DLNA/UPnP connected devices (iTunes server support is also present).

You can run system diagnostics, format and check the drives for errors, hibernate and restart the NAS and create/share ISO images from within the Utilities page.

The My Cloud Ex4 can also notify you of errors via email and/or sms.

Although the NAS can be configured to automatically search for firmware updates you can also do so yourself from the firmware update page.

Unfortunately the My Cloud Ex4 doesn't have nowhere near the amount of extra apps you can install (always compared to QNAP, ASUSTOR, Thecus and Synology) still it does have available some very popular apps like Acer abFiles (makes it easy to access files from mobile devices), Acronis TrueImage (clone drives, secure wipe drives and backup the operating system, applications, settings and all of your data) aMule and Transmission (P2P downloading), Anti-Virus Essentials, IceCast (internet music streaming utility), Wordpress, phBB, phpMyAdmin, Joomla, Logitech SqueezeCenter, and NZBGet.
