    This WD drive works smoothly and is so easy to set up. Just plug in and it is ready. I started transferring files immediately. I only using this as a photo and document back up, not to create a system back up. Worth the money.

    I purchased this as an additional storage unit for my Xbox 1 when it ran out of space, and it worked without any issues. Plenty of extra space and super easy to set up. I would recommend this if you are in a similar position.

    We bought this hard drive to store all of the data from a dead laptop and it did the job beautifully. Easy to use and small enough to live in a desk drawer.

    Very good product overall for the price. Instructions are pretty much garbage and I can see how it’d be a little difficult for someone with 0 computer knowledge to first set up but works perfectly for a great price.

    I originally purchased this to use with my Macbook Pro. I loved it so much that when my Mom got a new Macbook Pro for her birthday I got this for her too. We both love it! It is so small, much different than the external drives I am used to from the past. I still have an old one connected to an older computer that is at least 3 times the size of this one and it needs to be plugged into an outlet. This one doesn't need to be plugged into an outlet. It transfers files very fast. It is formatted to work with a Windows computer out of the box. However setting it up to work with a Mac is very easy using the following steps: ● Plug My Passport into your Mac with the provided USB cable ● Open Disk Utility ● Select this hard drive on the left side list of drives ● In the center area click on Erase ● Select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) ● Type what you want to name the drive ● Click Erase. I recommend this drive if you've got a Macbook or a Windows computer and are looking for an external drive that's easy to take along with you, although it's just as good if sitting on a desk. Either way, I love this external drive!!

    This is my daily driver to supplement the storage on my MacBook. It is awesome and withstands the 2-4 travel trips I put on it per week.

    Cheaper than purchasing the amount of storage for a dang laptop...and that's counting the Holidays too. I'm glad I have found a deal with this one, but they left me dry for my laptop that I had met with several Employees, and including a manager or two, also within a two week span...only to learn they can not give me the computer that I was inside the store...and it amazingly sells out and cannot be found in any distribution warehouse center either? Raincheck would have been a beautiful gesture if I was offering to pay in full for the laptop right there and then...oh well... Happy Holidays everyone and stay safe
