Compact, light, runs very cool, silent, has fast transfer rates with USB 3.0 and worked out of the box for my Mac Book Pro. A perfectly portable drive - I use one for transferring videos to others I work with, and another as a Time Machine drive. Can't go wrong with this baby!

Who has time to waste on less than reliable external drives? Not me. Just like the past WD Externals that I have purchased, this one works exactly as it should. I've learned that I can expect total reliability and ease of use with WD - you can too!

I never knew how much I needed a hard drive in my life especially for editing videos. Works amazingly but I would suggest buying a different cable for it. Mine stop working after 3 days of having it but I was able to buy a cheap one on Amazon and haven’t had any problems ever since.

The WD My Passport for Mac 4TB is exactly what I needed for reliable, high-capacity storage. Setup was smooth, and it connected seamlessly with my Mac right out of the box. The 4TB capacity offers plenty of room for all my files, photos, and backups, and the USB 3.0 connection makes data transfers impressively fast. The compact, portable design is convenient for on-the-go use, and the blue finish adds a nice touch of style. It’s a perfect storage solution for Mac users looking for both performance and portability!

One of the easiest portable hard drives to use for MacBook. Because of the large capacity great for setting up as a back up hard drive. No extra downloads or applications needed.

This is my second Western Digital My Passport for Mac portable hard drive. It is a compact, yet very solid, device that is fast, reliable and very affordable, the perfect secondary backup device for my iMac. It comes formatted for OS devices so you just connect it to your device and backup. Super slick!

One of the better decisions I’ve made..

Finally able to move all my photos and videos off phone, iPad & Mac (they are all synced together) which in turn cleaned the message from ICloud giving 2 options 1, Buy more Storage {AGAIN} or 2. Unable to save bc your iCloud is Full. Plus the peace of mind that all is being backed up daily while I sleep is awesome. All this in lighting speed helps me want to keep using for other things like turbo tax etc...
Why pay more money every month when I can control & keep all my valued photos, videos, & data on a portable external 4TB with the speed of 3.0 plus hardware encryption at home or even take it with me when I need to travel. Who could ask for anything more....
I will definitely recommend My Passport to my family & friends.

Perfect size for the external Time Machine backups I do for my iMac on a regular schedule. My previous space got used up. Easy to add to additional devices I may choose to upload files or photo files to. Great price too - just when I needed it. Watch for sales...

This drive was quick and easy to set up and start using in minutes. Works perfectly as described. I'm using as an external drive as a default location for music and photos on a Mac desktop. I may get another to replace my backup drive at some point.
