    Purchased for a family member who is an avid Chromebook user. This external hard drive is compatible with Chromebook, not all are. I am pleased to report that the recipient is pleased.

    At the beginning I thought it was kind of pricey, but I bought it because I trusted WD more than other brands. And I was right. It’s worth every penny. Fast for backup, super light, and the design is nice.

    I was able to plug it in and save files with encryption which prevents prying eyes. It is a spin drive so you do have to be careful not to jostle it especially when it is in use. I would buy another one if needed.

    This WD Passport serves my backup needs well. I purchased it to upgrade to current technology, having appreciated a backup in the past to which I had to restore after a hard drive crash. Well worth the peace of mind!

    This is my 3rd WD external HDD. First one 7 years ago and still going strong with all my data intact. Now they are both almost full and going for my 3rd but I still back up all my data in the cloud. So far, so good.

    All good, but I use it as dumb drive. I reformat and use it for data storage. Can't comment on any software it comes with.

    I bought this with the store Geek Squad recommendation because my previous hard drive did not have enough space left to backup my PC. I was able to leave my computer and hard drive for prompt back up but have not checked to see how it came out.
