Great for portability small and portable, easy to set up, usb for power

Perfect, as expected. WD is my only choice for hard drives.

Portable, fast, secure storage. Read speeds slower than WD Black but Write speeds are faster. Perfect for pc or Mac storage, not as good for video game external storage. Would high recommend this produce. Can’t wait to purchase more on Black Friday.

I use this to backup Synology NAS fro a 3rd copy that can be stored off site from the NAS. So far, this has worked well. I'm not sure about the speed, but it doesn't really affect me as the backup occurs overnight while I'm sleeping. This is my 3rd WD Passport, and all of them work well. I just need to keep increasing the size as my files (photos and videos) continue to add up.

It works great. I love how compact the external hard drives have become.

No problems whatsoever. I plugged it in, and it worked.

A really nice item. Helps me free up space on my computer, and store my music, memorable pictures and files. I highly recommend this item.

Have only used this as plug and play so far. And that was simple. Still want to figure out what I think is supposed to be included software to do scheduled backups. Needed this to transfer files from old failing desktop to new desktop, and it has met that need.

I love the size of my Passport 5TB External Portable Hard Drive. It's about the size of an iPhone. It's easy to use and store. This is my second one. When I fill this up, I'll get another one. I use it to store photos. Very convenient.

I bought a new computer, what a mess it was. So many files as the old computer was 11 years old and everything was on it. Why I have no idea LOL. I am 65 years old needed an easy way to save everything, and start a back up program. This is easy to use, easy to transport from home computer to work. I love it!

I initially got this to create a system image in case a driver issue, virus, Windows bug, or something else ever happened (ironically, got an error 3 days after purchasing and this saved me a bunch of time). I also use it to store in-game clips that I am too lazy to edit. It is perfect for my use case as I don't need those clips in my storage 24/7 and primarily having it disconnected with a system image on it is ideal (e.g. a ransomware attack could wipe it).

Its a hard drive, good price, it works. Only draw back is that its mechanical.

Great product!!! Excellent Store! I plugged it in and immediately, my computer saw it and I was able to download my information to it. Absolutely love it!!!

Works well with MAC just need to install a driver and it starts working

It’s memory storage. Just don’t expect SSD speeds. I have other WD external HDs over 10 yrs. None have failed yet.

Works well and simply, just what everyone needs for external storage.

What can I say? This little device does everything you'd want. It holds an amazing 5TB of your stuff for a low price that would have been unheard of just a few years ago. It's totally quiet and fast.

Super easy to set up and get going. Offers plenty of space for a great price point!

Easy to use and stores A LOT of data. I use it store my video and audio files since I do a lot of editing on them

I have many of these because they are stable and reliable, and they have never had problems! I trust Western Digital over any other brand. This amount of storage has also become less and less expensive, with a variety of colors and connections.
