Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the ample storage, ease of use, and reliability of the My Passport 4TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive. Many appreciate its compact size and the fast transfer speeds offered by the USB 3.0 connection, while some find the included software less than ideal and have noted minor design preferences. The price-to-performance ratio also receives positive feedback.

    Good product, no complaints works as expected only thing to note is that the transfer speeds are slightly slower than a comparable Seagate model.

    Picked this up to use with the PS4 4.5 firmware beta and it's been rock solid. Gave me the opportunity to install all the games I neglected and deleted to make more space.

    I don’t intend to use it for sensitive information. Also connectivity might be down because of updates etc. from time to time. It is a great back up system.

    I've been buying hard drives from WD for many years and they've always delivered on quality. Some other brands, notably Seagate, have given me issues, but WD never has.

    It had issues doing the back up on WD software would not show up or would take hours longer and not complete. I ended up doing cloning of drives with a Samsung program to match with the SSD from them and completed in 1/5 the time.

    I have been using this hard drive as a Mac time machine backup drive and it works very well. Wish the status led was a bit bigger but works well regardless.

    This external WD hard drive works well and it has a solid cable connection, which is very important since I use this device on 2 or 3 different computers every day.

    I replaced an older USB 3 drive with this one. Even though they are both USB 3, this one is much faster. A full system backup takes half the time with this drive.

    I use a couple of these for server back-up's and they are just plug and play ... at home I use them for regular back-up's on our lap-top's too.

    When you need to slam a drive into a computer and download a bunch of videos or pictures this drive will get it done quick with usb 3.0.
