    I got this for my ASUS laptop. Unboxing was very easy and the laptop instantly recognized the drive. Well worth the money.

    I like the WD Passports, have been using them for a long time. Good price and reliable. Only ever had one fail and WD replaced it.

    I have been using Western Digital Passports for several years now, and prefer them to several other brands I have tried. The set-up and use are seem simpler for someone like me who is not very tech saavy.

    i bought this to backup my files from older computer and this thing is quick, plug and play that works. depends on what you need, you can opt for less storage for a cheaper price, but comparatively speaking, this is cheaper per gig than the smaller version.

    This passport does not have as nice of a case as the previous passport however it does appear that the new drive is more energy efficient and goes to sleep when not in use. 4TB Is awesome and the fact that these are powered via the USB makes these drives the perfect choice.
