    Whenever I need storage I can always count on WD and so far this external HDD has been my go to whenever I need to store critical files and also I needed encryption which is the main reason I got this product. Any external HDD that has hardware encryption is a MUST because security is so important as you do not want anyone to see your important files. Only thing that might concern me is the caddie as its a hard plastic somewhat reasonably stable but with any HDD you must be gentle with it because of the platters and spin header so make sure to be careful with it.

    WD makes a very good product. I purchased this Passport 2TB Portable Hard Drive for my Grandson, whom is starting College this year. I told him it is probably more memory than he will need for the rest of his life, but time will tell. I purchased this model because it could be password protected, in case he want to do that.

    Best Buy Rep told me it would work, and it did! I was replacing a much older model that wouldn’t update. Best Buy Reps are the best!

    Purchased a new gaming computer for my son. had a list of things he wanted to transport from his old computer. A friend told me to just pick up one of these and save and transfer. I'm by no means a savvy computer guru but this was so easy to use it made me look like an expert! Small, easy, and can fit in your shirt pocket!

    Sure it isn't SSD but still very fast read and write and small format. Thinking of picking up another for the spare xbox to install more games.

    I wanted another storage device as my old one was getting full. I did have a hiccup where the hard drive stopped working and became unusable. After exchanging it for a new one I had no problems. It does what it’s supposed to.
