By any chance does this service comes free with any WD external drives?

There are diskless variants available ig but WD My Cloud does come with WD drives (not sure about the variant and whether its possible to shuck or not). Quick google search brought up this product page for one of the variants. It shows capacity b/w 2-16TB

I would instead suggest purchasing a portable disk and shucking it EDIT: if you have the expertise ofc. Its much cheaper this way usually
