    Gave this as a gift to someone who takes a lot of photographs. They could not be happier with how well and easy to use this is.

    This drive works great. I use it to save security DVR footage, as a DVR on my antenna HDMI box and for storage on a cheap laptop.

    I use it for storage of photos only. I only attach it to this use. It is put safely away after transfer so no viruses get them.

    Funny how we don't follow our own advice like to back up everything you own just in case. Well 'in case' happened and I hadn't backed up all my stuff as I had intended but fortunately I was able to spend 200 bucks to get it off my old computer. If I had just backed it up I could've saved myself the money. So don't be like me. Buy one of these drives before your computer crashes and back up all your stuff, especially the stuff you don't ever want to lose. Oh, this comes in a really pretty blue, too.

    Works great, Mac User, 2 small inconveniences

    I was deciding between this and the Seagate hard drive but heard from several of my techy friends that work in video editing jobs that require hard drives to store a lot of there media storage that WD Passport was the way to go! I have owned mine for 2 months and have not had no issues. I gave a 4 star because there's a small process before setting it up that you need to go through in order for it to work on MAC computers. It wasn't difficult but not convenient for Mac OS users. If you don't already know how.. you will mostly likely be looking up a YouTube video on how to format hard drive to work for Mac. There is also no "TimeMachine" on it for Mac like Seagate Hard drives. Other than that it's an overall snappy hard drive with no major issues!

    These are great for the price and for storage. Not the best speeds when trying to work directly off of them, but if I wanted that I'd be paying a whole lot more, so these are great for what I need and that is storage.
