Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the portability, size, and overall performance of the My Passport 1TB External USB Type-C Portable SSD, with many praising its compact design and fast speeds. Positive feedback also mentions the ample storage capacity and convenient connectivity options. However, some users have noted concerns regarding heat generation and occasional compatibility issues with certain systems. A shorter-than-ideal cable length was also mentioned as a minor drawback.

    Small and light, truly a portable Device that you can tuck into your shirt pocket. Enough storage space for all of your backup music, or photos. Well maybe not all of it, but enough for my 1960’s collection...

    I love how small this SSD drive is. I've had an external WD HDD My Passport before, and I've been very happy with it. The only downsides were its lower speed and vulnerability to shock. Both issues are now solved!

    Impressively small. My phone reveals its entire capacity as an attached USB device. I bank on Western Digital for quality, and I am expecting this to last. Highly recommend.

    I was amazed at how easy it was to use the product. In one overnight session it backed up all my files. It can slip into my pocket so I can carry my files around easily. Very light and small. I am amazed by it.

    With our laptop today it is nice to have backups with lots of space. Drive was very easy to format for windows or mac computers. Gives the extra space needed when transferring old laptop to new.
