    I purchased the Western Digital - "My Passport 1TB External USB" to backup files and pictures I have stored on my laptop. I didn't use the full backup option. In just opened two windows and dropped and dragged my files from my laptop to the WD Passport. Very fast rate of copying. Unbelievable! I transferred over 1,000 pictures and numerous files and I barely made a dent in the used space on the drive. I still have 95% free. I highly recommend this product! P.S. Make sure you open the install file on the WD Passport and install the software on your device.

    What I love best about these drives is it does not need a power adapter. Simply plug the USB in your laptop and that's it. Works great
