    The Passport worked as advertised, although I did have to take off the solicitation that uploaded.

    I haven't had this drive long enough to give it a different rating than the one that appears here. So far, it works as represented and without any problems.

    I have several of these drives because you can never have enough backups of valuable data. These are reliable, and I've never had one fail. I can't afford to lose manuscripts, so I rely on the WD drives. They also give large drives at good prices.

    Nothing comes with directions anymore, but setting this up was easy and the backup performed quickly. I just hope I don't need to use it, but it is there in case anything happens to my hard drive.

    Smaller than my other hard drives but twice the space. Easy plug-and-play for my Mac. I have moved files from my old Mac to my MacBook with no problems.

    Use this for backing up a MacBook Pro laptop which is aged. Laptop is working better since the use of this hard drive. Plugged the unit into the Mac and was able to download the program with ease. Extremely easy to use.

    Who doesn’t need more space given the size of pictures and videos. This is made for Mac and is a must given the internal hard drive remaining clear will keep its speed more easily. Good deal.

    Great value for what you get. If you’re looking for an industrial bulletproof product then perhaps look else where. For everyday use at home or travel it is great.

    This external HD seemed best for my needs to save data from a dying laptop in order to transfer to a new one. Best Buy staff handled the process expertly since I am not comfortably skilled with this technology.

    We got this to replace our old External Hardrive. This works with Mac. All I had to do was plug it in. I am very happy with it and glad I looked around for something compatible that I didn't have to format.
