If you have Windows 7 Premium, it wont work on a network storage, only on the professional and ultimate versions. You can also use Smartware to backup your files.

Yes I realize this now, however, there SURE WAS NOT any indication in BUYING this otherwise great all-in-one that it would only work with Win 7 Pro or Ultimate.
I believe in straight up advertising, and this should have been a blatant compatibility disclaimer. Because it was not there I perceived otherwise.

Are you blaming WD? What exactly are you quoting when you say
**********Backs up files only******

The drive does allow backup with any operating system, its the backup to network drive thats not included in windows 7 Premium. The WD smartware program can still be used to backup your files.
