    Mac issues at the beginning

    I use a Macbook Pro 2019 and was aware that additional steps are required to be able to use the Hard Drive on macOS. When I connected I followed the installation for Mac that it provided but at the end I was unable to read and write on it. After searching up solutions, one person said to format it to exFAT and that solved it. To do that go to Disk Utility Application, click on the new drive, click partition, then format to exFAT. You also don't need the additional software it asks to install unless you want to put a password on the Hard Drive. Minus one star because the multiple WD software I installed didn't work at the end.

    I always have liked passport drives and have only had a small problem once after a peer surge. The one I am using now I have had 5 or 6 years and it's still going strong. This was bought for

    Small, compact and easy to use. My former external storage device was far bulkier — and older.

    Bought this for my family's Playstation 4 console. It was easy to use. Formatted itself and we were able to move games, music and other data from the Playstation cloud to the hard drive easily.

    It's quick, and does exactly what I need it to. Only thing about it is, it will continuously draw power from 3.0 ports. But that's if you leave things on.

    Love this external hard drive. It comes with 4 Terra bytes of memory which I use and need with enough room for the future storage needs. Will pick up more in the future.

    Lightweight and portable. Did not come with any instructions. Called support and was walked through the set-up. Had to redo the back-up, stalled and crashed on first attempt. A little slower than I expected.
