A versatile and portable hard drive. Not to mention it's also reliable. Easy to configure and encrypt. It's a lot of space in a unit that won't require much space.

If you have a computer you need to get a Passport to back everything from your computer. My life is on my computer so backing up my life on a Passport is a must. You need a Passport also.

This compact drive is easy to setup and use on a regular basis either as automatic backups or as desired. Great customer support is available if there are installation or operation questions. Drive is silent and works in the background. Great value for large amount of backup storage.

This is a very compact drive with a huge amount of storage capacity. Backups are quick and automatic. I’ve used it for 3 months without a problem. The set up instructions were a bit hard to understand and I had to call customer support which provided the help I needed. Better instructions would have earned the 5th star

I had difficulty getting it to unmount after the first time use. Had to restart my computer and then it dismounted just fine. Since then I’ve had zero issues and it’s worked perfectly.

This hard drive is easy to use and takes up a very small area which was one of my requirements. I have been very happy with this purchase. The only thing that could be annoying is the prompting to update the software happens pretty frequently though I think you can use it without the software.

I've had a smaller WD external HD for a few years. Never had any issues. Wanted to go to a larger storage size, and am using my 1TB for storage. So far, no problems.

This external hard drive is amazing, super fast and issue free. Also it does not have to be re-formatted for MACS's so that is a huge plus!
