It might be a good product if I could use it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Instructions were missing from the box I received. I used the USB cable included and plugged it in. My iMac said to disconnect the recently added item that was draining the power. Which I did. I reported this to Best Buy but they have not responded with a solution. If I could plug it in, I still have no information as to how to use it.

Tiny Package, Big Performance!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The WD - My Passport for Mac 2TB External USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive with Hardware Encryption (Latest Model) - Blue is a tiny package of serious external storage. 2TBs of storage on the go with easy plug and play access via USB and USB-C. Out of the package this tiny giant was recognized by my MacBook Pro (Late 2013), installed, and was ready to transfer and backup my HD. I was honestly not sure if this was going to be SSD or traditional HD. It is so small, that I was surprised to find it vibrate slightly as the drive revved up. Another surprise is the metal casing as other variations I have used in the past are plastic. I am a musician and photographer so I have many files and RAW photos that bog down my laptop, but this is a great companion for my work with tons of storage. The price point is spot on for this size and storage! PROS - WD quality and brand! - Tiny footprint - Accessibility (USB and USB-C connectivity for quick and seamless data transmission) - Portability, small/light enough to go anywhere you go - Metal casing - Cables included - Price/Size/Storage CONS - The vibration was a bit odd for the size. Really wish this was SSD, but for the price/size/storage, one can't knock it too hard!

Failed
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I began backing up my computer using Time Machine on my Mac. It was totally backed up and was encrypting and suddenly it quit. I got the message that I had ejected the disk incorrectly even though it was still connected. I called Geek Squad and they told me it would cost $225 to look at the problem. No thanks. Then I took my computer and drive to Schrock. They told me the drive was defective. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is that Best Buy exchanged the drive. I’ll try again.!
