For Time Machine, you need to format for Apple. It comes with WD software that isn't needed and automatically downloads. A bother since it's not needed with my MacAir, but otherwise it was a good purchase and does its job for a decent price

I had a tune up on my computer. Geek Squad recommended I needed back for my files. The associate helping me went into the stock room to find this item. Good price, easy to back up files. Solves the problem.

It's surprisingly lightweight and thin. It needs to be reformatted with Apple's DiskUtility in the APFS format for use on a Mac.
It's pretty fast writing and reading.

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.

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.

Excellent Back-Up HD to use for Time Machine.

My previous back-up HD was filled to capacity and Apple's Time Machine would not delete older back-ups.
Hence, the purchase of this WD-My Passport back-up HD. I've used it once, and it took about 2 1/2 hours for the first back-up. All worked well. Set-up is a no brainer, I look forward to using this WD-My Passport back-up HD for a few more years to come.

This is second WD ULTRA I have purchased. Currently have the 2 TB version. Installed it with no effort, on lines in a matter of minutes. Currently have backup with no problems. I might also add I had no problems with my first WD and I have no reason to think I will have any problems with my latest WD Ultra.

Light and fast for a mechanical HD

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.
