    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.

    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.

    Got a great value. It cannot be repaired so keep that in mind. The had would throttle its speed while I was backing up files. Max speed of 94 MB’s for 10 minutes and it would go down all the way to 20 for like 10 minutes. If the port has power it will stay on.
