Great device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great portable drive. I have been using passport drives now for over 4 years. I still have the first one I bought and it still operates the same as the day it was purchased. I now have 6 drives of differing size.

Great Device

Lots of storage and one cable. Can't be beat. Pretty responsive and acts as great external storage for my work laptop.

Excellant way to back up files and store photos
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with the My Passport 4TB unit. This isn't the first Passport that I have purchased but it is the largest capacity. The 3.0 USB make it extremely fast and it's small size makes it very portable.

Nice little HD with plenty of storage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I must admit that I haven't used this drive a lot yet, but I like the sizes - both physical and electronic.The faster USB 3 interface is the primary reason I opted to buy a new drive at this time. And, if buying a new drive, I figured I might as well go big. The only disappointment so far is that, unlike in prior times, there was no storage/transport case included. As prices of mass storage devices have come down, they've learned another way to squeeze you for an additional $15-$20 - make you buy a case, or put your purchase at risk.

great price for 4 TB
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The drive is small and light weight for those that would carry in a back pack or suit case. I am new to this brand but as a third form of back up with a cloud backup it works well for me.

WD - My Passport
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This portable hard drive is a good size with lots of memory and was easy to set up. My one complaint is that it won't allow me to download a few of it's programs. I can still access it, but through my computer only not through the program that supposed to be used.

Good hard drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for a Mac. You just have to format it before using for a mac. There is some bloat ware on the hard drive that you shouldn't install because the backup program on the Mac works fine.
