Served its purpose and more
I bought this when our daughter's laptop died just before finals to transfer the contents of her hard drove to a replacement computer. She now uses it for file backup so that recovery is much easier in the future. Tip: when selecting a laptop, know that it is much easier to recover files from a hard disk drive than a solid-state drive. If you have a computer with a solid state drive, be careful to back up all the files regularly in case the computer dies (i.e. bad motherboard). This device is easy to use as a backup drive. (Not as easy as a network backup drive but adequate for personal use.)

perfect product at the perfect price
I wanted a portable hard drive to serve as a backup to the one I have now. The Passport has a 500gb capacity which was the size I had wanted and was reasonably priced at Best Buy . It is a bit smaller than my earlier hard drive in physical size and is plug and play pretty much. I use these drives as storage for photos videos and documents and the Passport fills the bill perfectly.
