While some users experienced compatibility issues, these were less frequently reported than positive feedback. The drive's occasional noise was another minor concern raised by a few customers.

    I bought it as a storage for my videos and music and I was hoping to take it to my gigs but the cable is too flimsy to be part of a mobile DJ set up.

    The passport external hard drive is very small so it does not take up a lot of space. And it works just fine.

    It will not work with Vista and other prior operating systems It seems they could make it to still work with the millions of computers out there, that still have Vista and prior operating systems. Called WD tech support. Took a long time for the customer service to even figure out and tell me 3TB model, will not work and is not compatible with Windows Vista. They gave no fix, no solution, and no alternative to being able to save data

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
