Device Maintenance: Reboot and Shutdown

You can safely reboot and shut down your WD My Cloud device using two methods.

• Device Maintenance section of the Utilities page (discussed below)

• WD Quick View icon (see “Utilities” on page 83).

If you are unable to shut down by either method, see “I am having trouble shutting down the
WD My Cloud Device.” on page 122.

To reboot your device:

1. On the Utilities page, in the Device Maintenance section, click Reboot.

The following message displays:

Important: Before rebooting or shutting down, make sure that there are no file

transfers in progress. Check the LED on the front of the device to make
sure it is not blinking. Blinking indicates that the unit is processing
information (for example, backing up or transferring files).

WARNING!

Do not unplug the device during reboot or shutdown.
