    I’ve always used WD passports external drives. My old WD was slowing down somewhat and replaced it with this kind. I am glad I did, as it complimented my XPS computer, it is fast and smooth.

    I am a teacher and with all the materials I have I scanned it all in this hard drive from work. I’m able to bring it home and work on it. Saves my Back ache from carrying so much! Best investment ever!

    I've got several WD Passports. Use them all the time for photos, videos and backing up my computers. They all work great and are small for storing. I've even bought for presents because the price is reasonable.

    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.
