    I’m used to external hard drives being read as soon as I plugged them into my computer. I have a 2018 MacBook that I had to restart once I plugged it in, in order for my Mac to read it. Later I plugged it into a desktop to copy movies over, and that computer could read it, but not as a hard drive, so I color open it. A bit frustrating but nothing serious.

    I bought this on the recommendation of the salesperson. I was looking for something that will communicate with my iPad Pro. The salesperson stated that this will do the job. The price was right and the capacity should allow me access to all of my files.

    The build quality on this drive is nice, the speed over USB 3.0 is good. I can't review the software that comes on the drive because I immediately wiped it and formatted the drive to use with Time Machine. Can't complain.

    This passport is really good and secure. I still have not been able to figure out how to use the cloud to access documents, but it keeps my documents protected and very compact.

    My passport for Mac is a good back up hard drive if you have Mac computers. It's a plug and play. Highly recommended if you have Mac.
