    This drive is perfect for my needs. It has plenty of storage and it made switching to a new laptop so easy. Plus I have peace of mind knowing my data is backed up.

    My Choice for a Backup Drive

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this drive to use for backing up my primary system and assorted other files. I was able to partition it, install a Linux system of its own on it, boot-up the system installed on it, and backup everything to it from within that system all without any problems. It did seem to get a bit warmer than I thought it would during the initial backup process, but everything went smoothly and it looks like all the data is there. Western Digital has been my go-to drive brand for many a year now, with the only failure in that time being caused by me, so I'm expecting this drive to function well and last for a good while

    This device is small and compact and holds more data then we thought we had. The price was the best after shopping and comparing with other external drives. Easily downloads data with very minimal instructions.

    These External Drives Are Great for Storage and replay on PC's and TV's. However... once in a while you get one that is defective. Just return it and get another one or just a refund.

    Small, silent and easy to use

    I was surprised by the size of this portable drive, it is much smaller than my previous WD My Passport. I use it for Time Machine backups on my macbook pro, so I can't attest to its speed of writing/reading, since I don't care much. I did notice that the first backup (500GB) took a while, but other than that it's silent and works well in the background. I can travel with it due to how flat it is, so that's another plus. Setting it up was easy. I plugged it on, opened Time Machine and selected the drive. Time machine required to format it in order to use it, but that didn't take long and in no time it was backing up.

    Simple and easy to use. Good storage space, good price. Perfectly happy with it. Also, I like to support Best Buy because I appreciate being able to see product that I'm buying before paying for it. Also, Best Buy backs up their products so I support them as much as possible.

    The WD storage device is easy to use and setup up. The Downloadable WD icon is a great tool for setup and use for transferring files. It has been reliable so far. It’s compact size makes convenient to take from place to place.

    Well, let me tell you - I had some digital files and I didn't know where to put them. Can't fit 'em in a shoe box. Can't fit 'em in my truck. Can't fit 'em in my fish tank with my little fishy "Sir Swims' A-Lot". But, I CAN fit them in my brand spankin' new WD My Passport 2TB External drive! Yes sir, this sucker works! Thank you, Western Digital. You did me a solid.

    This is the second My Passport that I have purchased and both work great and have given me no problems. It’s slightly cheaper than other similar options but the quality is just as good.

    I really liked this external memory for the 2 Terabytes capacity. I was able to backup my PC before I cleaned it from all the trash that was causing it to lag. The price was about 90 dollars so it was just right.
