    I do a lot of editing of videos in support of a non-profit dance troupe. I have used WD brand external drives exclusively to store, backup, and transport videos, photos, and data files. This is one of the new USB 3.0 drive, and it has been reliable, and fast. The range of colors available helps keep multiple drives and content organized.

    This is the third one of these I have purchased over the past couple of years. They work great, and have a lot of storage for their size. Perfect for computer backup, or storing important files away from the computer.

    Best Buy recommended that I purchase this 1T WD My Passport to back up my information when they replaced the crashed hard drive of my laptop. They actually gave me a choice of two and I chose this one. I am very satisfied with it. I use it very often to retrieve information from it that I no longer need to store on my laptop. It was an investment worth making. It is so portable that I can take it anywhere, whenever I need to.
