Customer Ratings & Reviews

Highly recommend the portable USB WD hard drives for backing up your computer. I know some of our files are stored in the cloud, but this is a good local copy that can ensure you have everything. Works fine on Mac, Windows and even ChromeBooks.

Fast and easy to use. Great way to organize files.

Plug and play ease! I bought it for my outdated PS4 and it worked perfect. No more deleting games to update and re-download. Exactly what I needed.

Of course an amazing product for many applications

Priced very competitively and works great for my sons playstation. Plug and play if you will...provides plenty of room for games, and super easy to use. My son couldnt thank me enough when he saw the amount of space, as well how easy it is to use.

Bought this for a backup drive for a laptop. Speeds on this thing are around 230-250 MB per sec. Runs cool and quite and the connector is nice and tight. Doesn't just fall out or loose like my old Seagate backup drive.

Good hard drive for backing up important things. It's very fast much faster than my old generation desk tower hard drive.. Very nice style. Red is nice very easy to spot if u can't find it. Got this on a deal on the website saved me 10 bucks.

Bought for backup...was easy to setup and use with my Mac.

There is a ton of data on it from the data recovery. The problem I have is that I am not a Geek Squad agent. I could find no instructions as to how to put the data, files, etc. into my new (replacement) laptop. It cost me $600+ for the data recovery service, but now what do I do to be able to use it

It's perfect for keeping a back up copy of files I don't want to lose.

We needed an external drive to hold information from computers we were eliminating. We are putting all info from 2 old computers and smart drives that we have info on. Also all the extra photos that take up a lot of room. It works great!

Reasonably priced Hard drive with 2 TB that is sturdy.

It is very Chilled! I really like using it. Can use it more!

A little pricier than it should be for only 2TBs, but can't complain that much. Where else are you going to get a decent hard drive quickly these days in person when you need it? If you have time order online. But it's a dependable drive. Good for everyday storage tasks.

The drive is a mechanical drive inside a sealed case. If you will be transferring a lot of data (dozens of gigabytes and/or thousands of files) it will get hot. I put a little fan on it during those times. Works with all common file systems, just may need reparationing and formatting.

It’s there for you when you need it!! Don’t regret not taking a few minutes to save all that is important to you!!

Bought this as a backup for a business computer. It works exactly as it says is should. I like that you can program it to backup automatically everyday, since I know I'd forget. Fantastic value for this quality!

Followed installation instructions found on internet search for Time Machine on Macs, which say do not use what WD tells you to do. Install was easy with no problems. Gave 4 stars as not had to do a restore yet from the My Passport drive. Seems to be working fine with no problems with daily backups using Time Machine. Have been using for about 3 weeks.

We wanted to make sure all our photos were saved, in electronic form. So along with a scanner, this works very well for a photo storage and conversion system. Seems to transfer quickly. And PLENTY of room for all your pics.

Great item for work. Easy setup and great for backing up my laptop
