    This is a great external hard drive. Had enough room to store my files on my MacBook and more! It also comes with a option to add a password to protect your files if stolen. Definitely would recommend this product!

    My Passport works with my Tablo. It has plenty of room to record live TV shows that we receive off of our antenna. No problems and it works flawlessly.

    Has been working flawlessly. I use it as my backup drive, hooked up to MyCloud. Formatting is not required and is plug-and-play. Used it as external USB drive connected to my Laptops USB port and works great.

    Bought this Passport external hard drive for portability. Used by college student to backup their MacBook Air notebook computer. Works as intended. Had to reformat for use with Mac. Only came formatted for Windows. Would get 5 stars if formatted for Mac. There are Passports formatted for Mac but this Best Buy did not have any.

    This drive is sleeker than it looks in the photo. It is simple to install and back up to, with plenty of space to hold all the photos off the old computers you don't want to use anymore.

    If you've ever lost data, you know how devastating it can be and how hard it is to back up your data. With this drive, you can schedule daily or weekly backups and virtually forget about it! Easy to set up and maintain.
