    It's very easy to use for added storage. The price was better than anywhere else at the time of my purchase. This is my 3rd WD portable Hard Drive and I havent had any problems with them thus far.

    Recently purchased this Passport 2TB backup drive for a mission trip to Africa with students. Each day team members were taking pictures which they would later use for a school presentation. This portable passport unit made it easy for each student to back up their personal camera ScanDiscs to a safe site where each person's photos can be shared later. It was compatible with both Mac and PC computers. In the past, students have lost their camera chips... and along with it priceless photo memories. For the price, compact size, ease of use, and ample data space - this portable back-up passport unit was our perfect solution to assuring each students photos would be safe.

    Needed a repository for data to free up the hard drive on my Surface. This was a great choice - very light and compact, easy to use, and not too expensive. Altogether an excellent choice.

    This is a good device to have if you want to add storage to your ps4 or xbox, if xbox does it. I have a ton of games and I was looking at an inexpensive and easy to put together external hard drive.

    I like to take pictures, frame pictures, give pictures as gifts, etc. I want to ensure I have ALL my pictures forever, much like I would a set of negatives. I want to be able to recreate and use for a variety of ideas. This external hard drive is easy to use and holds enough that I can back up entire pc. I feel safer and use it confidently.

    This 2 TB WD external hard drive is one of the best external HD I have ever had! 100% the easiest plug and play HD. The 3.0 USB makes for transferring tons of files, pictures, and videos in a flash!! Definitely comes in handy for quickly copying data from all the villain computers in Gotham City. Also the fact that it’s password protected and has 256 bit AES hardware encryption, puts me at ease if the time ever comes that it may fall into the wrong hands. I definitely would recommend this HD to all the other superheroes out there!! Shhh don’t tell the Joker and all my other enemies.... would definitely suck for me because I don’t think I’d be able to hack into this HD! Thanks, Batman

    Easy to use! Plug and play. Makes storage easy. My laptop hard drive was full and slowing down my computer. I transferred all the files to the external drive and now my computer runs better.

    Works great. Added the much needed space to ps4. Kept running out of space and needing to delete stuff. No longer will I have to do this with an extra 2tb. Its pretty much plug and play set up.

    It's my first portable hard drive. Price was right (but I did just miss a sale that would have saved me 20). It's easy and compact. I'm thinking of picking up another one.
