Great Portable External Hard Drive
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This 4GB Western Digital portable hard drive makes an excellent travel companion or if desk space is at a premium. The USB 3 connection is plenty fast for transferring files to and from your computer. It makes an excellent backup solution and provides encryption as well if you need/want it. Western Digital has an excellent history and I have no issues with trusting my critical files to this drive.

Super simple, secure and useful
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's super simple to use. Transfers videos, videogames and images easily and quickly. Password encryption means I have some peace of mind if it were to go missing. The only negative I can find is the cable that goes in the hard drive is from prior to micro USB so if I lost the cable I'd have to buy a new one. I received this product in part for my review.

Can't go wrong with WD
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.WD drives are always my go-to harddrives. This one can be used as any ordinary external HDD, but this one is geared more for being used as a backup drive, which is works well for. When you plug in the drive, it has executables for Mac and Windows to install "WD Discovery". This is what allows you to enable the encryption, and backup from your cloud services. You can also install the other WD utility apps. They all seem to work well, and is a great way to keep your data safe. You should always save your most important data in multiple locations, including "onsite" and "offisite". This drive will help you accomplish that.

Mr.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought WD passport of this model in 2020. I just used two times for pictures storage. Recently I found it was not recognized by computer. Checked with BestBuy, the BestBuy young girl was really nice and tried her best to solve the problem. But finally failed to get it recovered. She asked me to contact manufacture as BestBuy is only a seller and isn't responsible for any product problem. I lost all my files in my Passport, really a disaster for my job and my family!!! Never recommend this product!

Windows-only compatible
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I immediately exchanged it at my local Best Buy for the model that is compatible with MacOS. It was not clear from the online information that this item is for Windows.
