Customer Ratings & Reviews

Five stars for external design (can be slipped into the breast pocket of a jacket), connections (a short USB 3.0 cord is provided but no need for a separate power supply), and immediate use (if Windows, it's just plug and play). Minus two stars for failure to include promised "quick install guide" (only the user agreement is in the packaging), the failure of WD's support site to provide download for instructions, the incompatibility of this drive with Bitlocker (I wanted to use Windows Pro's security to be consistent with my other external drives, but it won't work with this drive), and glitches when installing the WD utilities (had to force the install when it claimed it couldn't find its own EXE files). That said, it's a very handy little device. I wound up using the WD encryption utility and then tried it on a different computer that didn't have the WD utilities. Plugging it in automatically triggered a request to launch the unlock utility and it worked just fine on the new PC. Recommended if you aren't planning on using Bitlocker for drive encryption.

This has been a reliable drive, so far. Mostly use it to store movies. I generally keep it plugged into my LG tv.

Plenty of storage capacity, easy to use. No disc to go bad like my previous one.

Reliable, maximum storage, USB 3.0. Great value for backing up important files.

Great for backup storage. Small and compact but great storage.

I love how small it is and that it holds so much..

I store video files and back up my laptop. Easy to use and plenty of room. Small enough to carry with me to do presentations.

I really appreciate how small the drive is and it can still store so much information and the transfer speed is so fast!

I love the product. I'm an avid gamer and need more space for storage due to larger game files. I would recommend this external drive for Xbox series and PS5 game systems. Not a bad price for HDD and more storage space versus 2 TB SSD.

Purchased this item to replace a 2TB backup that was full. Works great with my Apple Mini. Easy to install.

Work very good for ps4 and ps5 to save the game and the console more free space, low cost thanks bestbuy

Easy to use, works great. Good value, good price for 5 tb.

This external has a great amount of storage and runs fairly quickly all for a pretty decent price point.

Good amount of storage for a portable, easy to use. Happy so far!

This is my second purchase of a portable hard drive by passport. I love how small and compact and easy to use it is!

Product works as advertised. Simple to setup and use. Lots of space to hold videos, pics, etc.

After my older,larger sized drive failed, I got this, more gigs, a fraction of the size and even faster. No complaints

Good for the price. This item came on the tme I really need space on my laptop and could not just delete some videos/photos and documents.

Does the job it’s supposed to do. Wonderful disk capacity!
