    We bought this as an upgrade for an older version of a WD My Passport, it works great and provides us with assurance that our photos and documents will be safe.

    This external HD was just what I needed to get more space on my laptop. A few years ago when I brought my Mac laptop memory wasn't the main focus. Now I wish it had been. The passport extetnal HD I recently purchased from Bestbuy fits my needs perfectly!

    I had just purchased a new MacPro and needed a new back-up. The Passport couples with the Mac. No steps to activate. Plug the Passport in and it starts backing up!

    This was absolutely the best price out there for 2TB. Being able to check in stock and receive it quick is also a huge plus when you’re ready to back things up.

    Great portable storage, easy to use. Plug and play. Although, I wish it came with a pouch for easy storage and carry. No issues so far. I would recommend.

    I have used WD passports for a long time. I always wait to get them on sale. I use a ton for backing up my data and have found them the most reliable for me.

    Nice, small, easy to use, pretty much plug and play. I'm using for my PS5. Plug it in, format the external drive, and ready to store ps4 games on it. Amazing

    It was easy to set up and it's easy to use. It did take me a minute to find out how to format it for both Mac and PC, but that's hardly the product's fault.
