Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great backup drive for the Mac. I had an issue with a different brand portable drive that was originally a PC formatted drive that I reformatted for Mac. I choose this drive because it had good reviews and was pre-formatted for Mac. The drive is large enough for what I needed and was a fairly small enclosure. I really liked the USB-C connection. My Mac has USB 2.0 and 3.0, it worked great with my computer.

Perfect for me needs. Easy to use and to sync with my computer

compact and easy to use. good amount of storage. attractive and travels well.

I love my passport. I can save all my documents on it, and the most important thing is that I can carry it wherever I go.

WD Passport External Hard Drives are lifesavers if you keep a library's worth of digital media. Whether films, magazine articles, or e-books, you won't have to rent space at those storage centers if you have a few of these. The WD Passports hold less information than the WD My Book, but the Passports are smaller and easier to handle. The 5 TB Passport shown here can easily hold about 500 Hi-Def films.

Perfect size for my cluttered desk with plenty of storage!

True WD reliability. I've been using this 5TB portable hard drive to back up all my files before upgrading my Windows 10 gaming desktop to Windows 11. The backup worked flawlessly. No issues. I'm pleased with this external hard drive.

This is best thing since sliced bread. It is small and easy to carry. I can put all my information on it and have it with me all the time. I should have purchased this a long time ago. I needed to store some old files on it and it worked perfectly. The salesman was over whelmed with customers but took the time to help me and explain the different items. He knew his job!

What an improvement over the disk technology. This replaced a 1T disk backup. It took very little time to move the 1T to the 5T now I have plenty of storage and the backup program works again - much faster.

Once I found a store employee all was ok although they did not know much about the product.

I like the WD My Passport portable storage. I have two of them now. My preference has been to keep files and photos in local storage devices as opposed to saving them online.

This little gem did the trick. It's slim profile requires extra attention so you don't lose it. I found the performance to be outstanding and the encryption feature never hurts. Best Buy had a great sale and I was able to get it at a great deal. You should replace your bulky shoe box with this deck of cards.

Works great. Holds big files because it's a big drive.

Great back up drive, easy to use. Plenty of storage.

I do a lot of editing, so I need a vast amount of storage. This 5TB got the job done for my latest project. Plenty of extra room left over for the next edit down the road. My only complaint is that it does see a noticeable slowdown when half of its storage was used. However, since its not an SSD that's to be expected. For the price, definitely worth the buy.

I specifically bought this USB drive for my xbox and have to say that this does the job really well. This drive is not only cheaper than the ones specifically designed for Xbox, but has a much better read/write, not to mention much cheaper and more space.

Easy install, small footprint, great storage device for the price.

So I was in the market for a new hard drive. Now a days, seems like I need a new 5tb every month. I had to grab this one up while I saw it on sale. I have other WD hard drives, and none of them have failed me yet (knock on wood). Very satisfied with my purchase, does exactly what I need it to do. Which is to hold and store my videos that I do for different clients.

Great for temporary storage of files. I use this one as an external for my PS4

Light portable hard drive, easy use and storage, good price.
