    I use this for my Xbox 1 and my computer. Connects great with both and I've nothing but positive experiences with it. Great price for the amount of storage. It is definitely worth the purchase.

    Bought this for my son as part of a computer/printer package deal to get ready to send him off to college. Slim compact design, plenty of storage space, and no complaints with the performance.

    The need for data back-up is critical and this 2TB unit was perfect for my HP desktop computer...and it was well-priced. Very easy to install and link to my system, I'd recommend it to anyone.

    I'm satisfied with the drive. My Dell Inspiron 14 didn't like it very much at first. It kept running security scans on the device every couple of minutes -- for weeks. Then I unplugged the device and plugged it back into another USB port, and now it seems to be fine. I have no idea what the problem was.

    This is a nice, compact 2TB external hard drive. The instructions are pretty much a joke, consisting of a few pictures, but connecting it to my laptop was quite simple. Good price too. .

    Have several of these WD Passports to keep personal and business stored externally. Small compact units provide easy access to stored data. Been using for years - great way to keep data.

    Never had a problem with WD and I currently have two. This one is perfect for storing my music, movies, books, pictures, and absolutely anything else. I use a 1TB for storage on my XBOX One and it works great for that purpose as well.

    I save all my videos I upload to Youtube, with over 1000 videos they just don't fit anywhere else. It also travels well and is small for as much as it holds and extremely easy to use.

    This is the second My Passport external hard drive I own. I like them because they're very use to use. This last one I bought because of its size, it's tiny but works great.

    The My Passport line of drives from Western Digital has been very good to me and to my clients. This reliable and good to excellent performing line has a long positive history with me. This WD My Passport Ultra is an evolution over the last generation. I'll pick it for new purchases over the older model, but won't rush out to replace older drives. It's a 5 star successor to a 5 star predecessor and continues to be a very good external storage choice. For making improvements and not messing up something that has been working well for a long time This new generation of My Passport Ultra drives is worth 5 stars in my opinion..
