• Yes, it works; however, do not install the included WD software, including the security package. It does not play nice with the Mac and is very frustrating. If you purchase this portable, simply use with Time Machine and you will be satisfied.

• Hi Milton, The WD My Passport Ultra for Mac comes pre-formatted for MAC OS. The hard drive will work as a plug-n-play hard drive on the MAC computer. You will be able to back up your computer on the external hard drive using Time Machine application. For more information, refer to the link mentioned below: Starting macOS Time Machine Backups to My Passport and External USB Drives: https://support-en.wd.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/18952/kw/time%20machine Need Help?
