    I recommend this external hard drive especially for the price. I'll never be able to take up all the storage on this thing and I have thousands of photos and documents to back up.

    Purchased to save videos of my musical performances and this definitely does the job. Videos need a lot of storage capacity seems this has more than enough to meg my meds.

    Was very easy to download files off an old computer that crashed, walked you through the process with the instructions. I'm not a computer genius and this product was easy to use.

    Recently cut the cord; went with sling tv and air tv player. Needed an external hard drive to record OTA channels. Works like it says; gives 350 hours of recording capability.

    It has a ton of space and it's small size and portability is appealing, but I'm not crazy about some of the features and I still need some help from tech navigating potential expanded folders.

    The WD Passport did exactly what I needed to do as an external drive. The set up was fairly easy to follow and now all my data is being backed up 3 times a week as I needed.

    The hard drive on a A laptop that we owned malfunctioned and it had many pictures on it. They were too precious to us to throw away so went to Best Buy to have the data retrieved. If I remember correctly it was a TB and a half. Many were on other drives and on other computers but the failed hard drive was our main storage device for pictures. The Beat Buy tech managed to be able to restore all the data including the pictures onto the new Passport 2 TB drive. Needless to say, what a relief
