Nice Backup UNit
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great little backup unit. Learned my lesson about making frequent backups when my hard drive died and I had to pay a bundle to recover the data.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat hard drive storage
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars Is because this would be my third hard drive purchase. I have need to backup items daily and it is only meant to perform so many backups before it corrupts. It lasts about two years and then you need a new one.

I would recommend this to a friendDon't buy this for a Backup Drive - it won't work!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I asked for help buying a backup drive for my laptop and the WD My Passport was recommended to me. I bought it, but I can't use it as a backup drive because it is incompatible with Windows 11. W11 sees it as a portable drive, not a fixed drive and therefore won't use it for backup. I'm totally frustrated!!
