    Smaller but Twice the Storage

    This 2TB WD is smaller than the WD 1 TB that I purchased a year ago, I purchased to go with a non-functioning hard drive so Geek Squad repair would use to put the recovered data on it. Had previously wondered how I could tell apart 1TB to 2TB until I saw them both together.

    Very affordable, smaller option of the My Passport series. Clutch for when you need a spare drive to dump top secret files onto. Like say, files from a famous laptop of an infamous son of a geriatric failure. lulz.

    I've used this portavle back up and so far is working good, very easy to use, connect and program the back up from my laptop. I took me a few minutes to get everything set up and running, now when I need to back up my files I just plug in the device and work seamlessly.

    I think it's the best option to expand the storage and back up data. I brought this one to use as a second backup drive for more storage. I'm very satisfied with this, in terms of value and stability. I strongly recommend this.

    It's important to make sure you have ALL your data backed up! This WD Passport 2TB is perfect. It has password protection, easy installation, gives reminders for additional backups and updates on WD app and dashboard displays for all backups!

    My Passport External Hard Drive purchase was a must for me. I have been working with my computer for Zoom teaching and have had to move files in order to retain the memory on my computer. This is easy to use and I can retrieve the files if I need them!

    Had to get this when recovering files on a corrupt hard drive through Geek Squad. It works well and is a nice small size. I still have everything backed up on an SSD just in case. I don't want anything happening to my files again!

    I had a need to exchange a large number of files with a friend so thought I would allow the exchange through this device. It comes with imbedded software so doesn’t require any formatting prior to first usage. It functioned as expected and files were successfully exchanged.

    I’m assuming it’s excellent. As soon as I take it out of the box and try it out, I’ll let you know. I’m always intimidated when I buy new electronics, and it takes me a while to even open them up.
