    I love that I can put my photos on the external hard drive and they are all in one place and I have more room on my computer. The hard drive has lots of space for my thousands of photos! Really happy I got it!!

    I have a bias for preferring Western Digital products, but it is because they have been reliable. Would recommend.

    This was just over 100 dollars for a plug and play storage solution. 4TB was more than enough for what I needed! Would recommend!

    It was easy to copy documents from my old computer to the hard drive. It holds a massive amount of storage. I highly recommend this product as it is a second storage in case my computer goes down

    I had purchased a My Passport a few years ago, and ended up needing another portable back up hard drive. I am going to use it to back up videos.

    Great plug and play. It has some software included but you don’t have to install it. I wanted a reliable backup for family video and pictures. Compact and fast data transfer.

    Great external hard drive for my laptop! We bought it because it was such a great price for the amount of storage we were receiving and it had lived to its high expectations. Worth it!

    Mac issues at the beginning

    I use a Macbook Pro 2019 and was aware that additional steps are required to be able to use the Hard Drive on macOS. When I connected I followed the installation for Mac that it provided but at the end I was unable to read and write on it. After searching up solutions, one person said to format it to exFAT and that solved it. To do that go to Disk Utility Application, click on the new drive, click partition, then format to exFAT. You also don't need the additional software it asks to install unless you want to put a password on the Hard Drive. Minus one star because the multiple WD software I installed didn't work at the end.

    These are great portable drives. I bought three of them when I was setting up a new backup and storage system on my Mac. They are easy to set up and format, and are very stable.

    Bought this portable drive to go along with my new Surface tablet. Only got the 256 gb hard drive and I take tons of pictures for school and work. Use the drive to sort ad edit pictures.

    I wanted more memory but this is the biggest they had in store so I purchased it. Price is ok, it’s small to take anywhere with me.

    This was a life saver. My PC wouldn't start and the GeekSquad used this item to back up my files. I would be lost without this save. I was lucky this device was available.

    Great for clearing out hard drive space. Bonus that you don't need an AC adapter to access it.
