    I bought this to run Time Machine on my MacBook Air. It works perfectly. I can also offload files from my "hard drive" (it's actually a Solid State Drive, not a Disk Drive) onto the Passport portable hard drive.

    When I bought this I thought I was buying a passport. Nope! This is a hard drive. It’s for computers to store data and such. Don’t plan to travel with this. It just won’t work. It’s not a real passport. Go to the post office to get this done. I think... wait, try going online first. The post office to take the photo. Good luck!

    Worked well with Yosemite. Western Digital website offers a manual, but I think the owner’s manual offered at the Best Buy website was more recent. 2 cables are in box: USB-A and USB-C. I used the older cable.

    This is the 3rd or 4th My Passport external drive that I've used for computer back-ups and general file storage. As always, the drive was a breeze to get going, and the new, slim design makes it a simple take-along in my bag.
