    This is my third external hard drive. All three are the same. Incredible how small they have become, and how much storage can be put on them. Yep, I used to have those huge ones!

    This 1 TB external usb 3.0 portable hard drive is great because it's durable, portable, and fast. I've own other WD Passport models and I recommend this brand and manufacturer.

    It's hard to believe that it's 1TB. I brought this because my laptop doesn't have enough storage. It's easy to use and is compact to take anywhere. I do wish it came with a carrying case.

    Drives are pricey but, as someone who does a lot of file creation and writing, it's super important to have a compatible hard drive that is also easy to transport.

    I went to install a printer on my husbands gaming computer and realized there was no storage space left. (His games were taking up a lot of space and he couldn’t even update them!). So we decided to solve both our problems and get an external HD. This works great. In the span of an hour he was able to transfer all his games to this external HD, install my printer, Office 365 (which was discounted with purchase) nd has tons of room left! I had previously bought one of the Passports years ago and never did fill it up with documents and pictures. I take a lot of pictures. Will definitely continue buying this brand.

    Small, easy to use for the most part. I do like the availability of using this to restore my laptop to a previous date. I have often found with updates or whatever things get messed up and it is nice to return my computer to a date before crazy things happen.
