Great portable hard drive with plenty of storage
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a photographer, so I needed an extra place to be able to store all of my work from over the years. Best Buy has a great variety of options for such needs. This Passport is amazing and I love having it to backup everything I need it to.

John Bleam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Before purchase I had an Element backup and earlier model Passport. The new Passport incorporates both in one. Works great but in the new Passport Ultra the backup information was lousy!!!

It works well
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There isn't much to say about external hard drives these days. They are pretty much a commodity. The hard drive works well. It is early on so I can't speak to reliability, but I have had other WD external hard drives that go and go and go... So I am hopeful this one will last a long time, too.

Great Produce, Worth Every Cent!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is massive yet so convenient and lights It's fast, efficient, attractive, and basically will solve any problems you're having (related to external hard drives at least). I use it for time machines and other large documents. Glad I bought it!

Plex likes it
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thia thing works exactly as it should. Fast, reliable, and plenty of space. I moved my media library for Plex off of two internal hard drives and onto here and it all runs great. No speed issues or buffering at all. Perfect way to clear up space in my case.

Small, large capacity, and easy to use.

Liked it so much I bought a second one
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked my original so much I bought a second one. You can never have too much backup protection and I don’t like the cloud. I like to keep my files duplicated on a backup drive but sometimes the drives will fail, so I like having a backup of my backup.

Fine, wish it had WiFi feature
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This did the job but wasn’t exactly what I was looking for. I was hoping to be able to transfer documents via WiFi. The Best Buy rep told me this product does that but it does not. Just a regular drive. I returned it because of that missing piece but would recommend for their storage space of that is not important to you.

great back up
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.needed a new back up hard drive as my computer's motherboard fried. Fortunately my tech guy was able to pull the 800GB of data off of it and store it on this. It has plenty of room, fairly fast connection to the data. I also have a WD cloud that works great, this will just make my life that much easier.

Awesome HDD
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for my PS5 and have had zero issues. All the PS4 games are stored in it and can play them straight from the HDD. PS5 games have to be moved to console storage in order to play them, but that’s PlayStation’s fault, not the HDD.

4TB My Passport external drive
