    This WD My Passport is a favorite hard drive. I have purchased this before, and appreciate the color coded drive to easily identify the type of files stored on it.

    It's nice to not need a separate power source. It gets its power from the USB connection. We do have another one, and one of our older style external drives (that required a separate power supply) failed, so we got another one of these to replace it. So far this is working as well as our other Passport drive.

    so important to back up, back up, back up. Love that I can get some colors, makes it easy to grab the right one when backing up since I have multiple back ups

    I backup almost a terabyte of pictures from my home computers, as task that took 2 hours using usb sticks at 32GB per/stick. The hard drive only took about 10 minutes to back up all my folders. Very impressed with the speed and it runs off the usb power, no need for extra power cables.

    This is the second one I have purchased. I use it exclusively for my recording studio files. It does a nice job at quickly backing up and also accessing recording files on the fly.

    Seems to be the right tool for backing up my desktop and remote memory. I have not done the initial back up yet, as it is likely to take a while. Could probably do it as a background task, but would rather not. It would be helpful if the unit came with actual user manual.

    I purchased the 5TB passport first

    I purchased the 5TB passport first and did an in store curbside pickup. I then brought it home and it was defective. I called the store and they did not have anymore 5TB but they did have the 4TB. I returned to the store to replace the 5TB with the 4TB. My refund was just over $1.00. SERIOUSLY???? The 5TB apparently was on sale and the 4TB was not. I made multiple trips, ended up with a lesser product and only got a $1 and change reimbursement? The 4TB software is not even working well as it is outdated and slows down my PC tremendously. I had to uninstall the software.

    These are a great budget way to backup your data.

    I have had 2 Hard drives die in my PC now so I wanted a solution for backing up my data. This a great budge solution. the data is saved and i can unplug the drive so it is not wearing out as fast.

    I initially backed up files from my HP. When I went to use it for my back up for my Mac it had to be erased. It has been giving me some error messages ever since and at times my Mac doesn’t want to recognize it. The device is built well and transfer rate is fast when it is working. I have other devices like this that have worked great. I’m not sure if this is just a fluke.
