WD shouldn't be removing features that users rely on. Bundling feature loss with security updates is just bad practice.
If faced with losing functionality critical to the reason someone purchased a device vs. vague release notes that mention security updates, the average consumer in many cases is going to weigh the intangible risk of security problems pretty small against the guaranteed loss of required features.

I really do wonder what these missing features are because there is zero likelihood that the ability to access the storage device itself is one of the lost features.
