    The hard drive was really easy to use. The external hard drive is small and easy to store. For the price it was well worth it. I would recommend it highly.

    I have an older Western Digital SSD and it has performed flawlessly, so when I needed a second SSD, WD came to mind right away. Easy to set up and use. I like the extra security of an external solid state drive.

    WD produces excellent hard drives and I’ve used them for years. I’m using this one for the backup to my Mac mini HD. It was easy to reformat for the MacOS and runs silently. An excellent device, as expected.

    The Passport (1 TB) is amazing. I have used it as a backup for my laptop for several years. The storage capacity is huge and it is so easy to use to backup documents and retrieve them. The device comes with a 10-year warranty, including being able to retrieve files if it becomes corrupted. I highly recommend it.

    Picked up please portable hard drive as an upgrade from my usual USB stick! I was able to store several photos, documents, and PDF documents without a hassle! The usb 3.0 helps items transfer quickly and securely with the added password encryption availability on this device! Now, unlike my USB device; if the drive is ever lost, I don’t don’t have to worry about my data being compromised as it is password-protected! I would definitely recommend this to others if your looking for a drive on a budget and need the added data security!

    I have used an older one for several years. Got this one for my wife. Good size for carrying around in purse or briefcase. Not much more expensive than thumbdrives and shoulld last longer and holds more.

    Love it! It stores all that I need to store. It’s quick transfers. It’ll tell you when everything is done. I personally store my pictures, videos, and documents. Anything that I need it can be stored on there and I’ve even used it to transfer stuff from one device to another.

    The old one I had was from 2006. Amazing that it had finally become dated with my PS5 this year! 20 years is a long time for any electronics. Not sure if this one will last that long but I am just happy if it makes it a fraction of that time since we're using newer technology and hardware.
