QuestionAnswering one of the previous questions, someone wrote "(you cannot set a password or encrypt the drive) ". Does this mean you cannot store compressed files on the WD - Easystore 2TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive ?
Asked 3 years ago by Janjun.
- Answer No. Compressed files (e.g. zip format) are different than encrypted data/drive. Since the drive ships formatted as NTFS, I am sure the drive can be encrypted. Try the WD Security application from WD support
