    WD My Passport 2TB is a plug and play external hard drive. After you plug it in the hard drive down loads the required drives. Then it is ready to use.

    The accompanying software fails consistently to install. Several hours wasted researching and retrying to install the software… just to find out the software supplied with the device does not work and is no longer supported by the vendor… The device without functioning software make this an over priced jump drive… I’m very disapointed…..

    This 2TB disk is my everyday back up, so I take it with me everywhere. It’s well built and pretty fast. At this price, it’s a great value.

    Works fine so far. Had for about a month. Only issue is it will sometimes tell me I do not have permission to access files but if I unplug and plug in again it is fine. Kind of annoying not not a big deal.
