    Lots of storage space; useful for regularly backing files from computers and smartphones; useful for transferring files from one computer to another. Excellent price. Purchased in late 2019 and I expect this to last 5 years or more. Pretty blue color.

    Very pleased with this purchase. Great price for a 2TB USB 3.0. I teach high school photography and was able to load a full year's worth of student work off our servers onto this drive and take it all home to do remote classroom teaching. Great purchase.

    I recently purchased the WD My Passport 2TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive in Red and so far, I'm really happy with my purchase. One of the main pros of this hard drive is that it allows me to keep my data safe by storing it off of my computer. With 2TB of space, I have plenty of room for all of my photos, files, and data. It's also great that the hard drive doesn't need its own power supply, which makes it even more portable. So far, I haven't encountered any cons with this hard drive. It's been a reliable and convenient way to store and access my data on the go.

    I bought two of these for work. The size of this hard drive is great and I have so much room on it still. Works great and easy to use and move all my documents onto when needed.

    Very good external hard drive. Good performance, nice security features. My one complaint is that it gets warm over long use. This doesn't seem to affect its performance, but I worry about how it might affect longevity. That aside, I've been very happy with this.

    Worth the Buy!

    The WD My Passport 1TB drive is a compact, reliable, and easy-to-use storage solution. Setup was simple—just plug and play. Transfer speeds are fast with USB 3.0, and the built-in backup software and password protection are great for peace of mind. My only minor issues are the short USB cable and the plastic casing, which feels a bit fragile. Still, for the price and portability, it’s a great external drive for backups and everyday storage. Highly recommended.

    I was wondering how I could save my important documents and information without depleting the space on my laptop. The salesman at Best Buy assisted me with my purchase of the WD 2TB My Passport Portable HDD. Thank you Best Buy for your knowledgeable staff.

    Good: favorable price, works well, compact, reliable. Not so good: seems to be slower (lower than 7200RPM drive), Windows 11 .Net updates break the password functionality and requires re-installation of the WD drive software.

    As with anyone who travels or just likes to take photos; I back up my photos in at least 3 places. I have cloud backup, smaller devices for travel, but since I am "old school" I do not put all my eggs in one basket. I use portable and dependable passports for my photos and videos. This was my latest purchase and I used it to back up over 20 years of photos and videos from a computer that needed to be replaced. Many of the photos have been displayed at local art shows and sold as cards and I find this product to be easy to work with.
