Hello
I plugged my brandnew passport HD directly to my WD Mycloud Home - not seen in the WD Discovery Dashboard.
I plugged it into my Macbook Pro - the Dashboard shoes it and data can be copied.
Is direct data transfer really not possible to gain some speed at backupping?
Mounted Drive access to your My Cloud Home private user space
Local computer USB access
An external USB drive connected to the My Cloud Home can only be accessed using the My Cloud Home mobile app. It cannot be seen in WD Discovery, MyCloud.com or the computer itself.
It is normal for WD Discovery to see and access a locally mounted USB drive

Time Machine backup can go to the TimeMachine folder of the My Cloud Home or the locally attached USB drive.
