Customer Ratings & Reviews

Portable, easy to use, sturdy with great capacity. While the security feature is a good one, one has to unlock the drive manually to perform a backup. If there is a way for this to happen automatically via the automated backup schedule, I have yet to discover it.

Although this is comparable with Mac OS I realized that the setting up process it a bit tricky. There aren't really good instructions on how to set it up, but Geek squad can be very helpful with setup. It's wonderful for work storage.

Great Device! Very small and convenient to carry around. Will fit in your pocket.

I like the new type C connection. Thin model this time around. Comes with a 3.0 A USB adapter. The cable supplied to type C to type C for those PC's with that connection

Amazing hard drive easy to use and good quality with tons of space

It meets what I need, easy to use, very affordable price, easy software management

This is a small size, quite and fast hd that exceeded my expectations! A lot of extras software comes with it that will help you mange and secure your media! Easy to use. Great price, totally loved it

Great device, performs great, software is easy to use and works as advertised

For a mechanical HD, it surprisingly fast and its size and weight are light. I have it velcroed to the lid of my laptop. I also have the 4 Tb version and it is much heavier and is twice as thick.

Great storage device for the price, easy to install. Works great as advertised.

Realized after I purchased a new computer that they changed the size of the plug in for a back up. This works great to back up my files & easy to use with Time Machine on an Apple computer!

Purchased for our kid for school. Had no problems setting up and we anticipate he will take a while to fill it with social media worthy pic and videos. And an occasional school assignment.

got it to store pictures and music, so it does that. lots of space, easy to use. pretty much plug in and start moving files, only had it a couple of weeks and have had no problems.

This portable drive has saved me! The passport ultra is small but powerful; and works great for backups. You can't go wrong with this hard drive.

Easy to set up as a back up drive. Convenient small size

Wpd highly recommend. Easy to use and slim. Perfect size.

Got this for my MIL to put photos and videos on there and off her phone. Good for that stuff. Complicated to start, have to download another app that has access to other features but was hoping for the simpler process they had 8 years ago when I got mine. Either way, decent product but expect to put work in at first

Excellent unit. Great for Time Machine backups on my MacBook Pro. A nice amount of storage for the price and is fast. Would recommend for all back up needs.

I've had previous experience with two other Western Digital external drives so when the time came to acquire an external storage device for my Macbook Pro, I jumped at the chance to grab another Western Digital drive based upon my prior experiences with their drives. Also don't be concerned that the drive comes formatted for Windows - simply connect this to any Mac and launch Disk Utility to reformat it to Apple's file system. My Mac's internal drive is 1 TB so I decided to grab a drive with double the storage space for extra room. Additionally, this drive has a metal shell (instead of the normal flimsy plastic) and also has USB-C interface (for slighly faster read/write speeds). Whether you're looking for extra storage for an existing system or you need a dedicated drive for backups, this Western Digital drive is a great choice. Pick one up today - you won't be disappointed!

Works as expected. Not bulky and good for the price.
