WdMyCloud is single HardDisk NaS that comes with BareBox + DebiaN GnU/LinuX based FirmWare and allows you to LogIn as RooT and with great CommunitY Thanks wd.
I managed to displace my backuped files to spare disk (40GB) one (the backup fits on one CDR)
Now I plan to debbootstap debian into the data part or even better on usb stick the challenge would be make it compatible without touching the uboot conf or stoke FirmWare or at least minimal changes that can be reverted easily…
Next job would be to rebuild all sources provided by WD and upstream what need to be upstreamed, this is not a fast job so any support is welcome…
I plan to provide Native DebiaN support to it and eventually try to help to UpStream this…
Note special attention to the reason I bought it (for 140EUR in 2015-01-17 ) is because of CommunitY and specially Fox_exe shared some many info about running DebiaN on this device… so respect to him and encourage him as much as you ca, he worth it ! most or content on this page was shared from this smart russian HackeR , national sport along chess :)
DebiaN :
Open will (or could?) crack warranty ? I dont care I wanted to know how I could replace the disk … 1 of 4 clip was broken.

BoarD has UarT pins, you can soldier wire directly to it, but I prefer to make my own adapter using a PcI SockeT since the width of pins seems to match.
Thanks I was looking for a way to avoid soildering the board
So designed my own socket by recycling a PCI socket :)
For serial you also an other board like RpI and just wire Tx to Rx etc …
Will report how if you want

This cable should do the trick too :
https://www.olimex.com/Products/Components/Cables/USB-Serial-Cable/USB-Serial-Cable-F/
GND=BLUE, RX(INPUT)=GREEN, TX(OUTPUT)=RED
Only green is needed to show output
