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.

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.

Great external Hard Drive at a great price. Very easy to use and plenty of storage

Almost 2 full Terabytes in this storage unit. easy to set-up & easy to store too. summed up in a word = ‘easy’.

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'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!

Great to carry, small and compact, amazing product

Great portable hard drive! easy to use! AWESOME!!!

I love this USB 3.0 drive. Western Digital is by far the best hard drive manufacturer and with USB 3.0 I can quicky transfer file to and from the drive. Very lightweight and portable.

Bought this unit to use with the Mac's built-in Time Machine backup software. Works very well and priced well to boot. Would recomment.

Solid backup storage device. If you have more than 2TB of data to backup, I don't know what to recommend. If you're a normal person this will more than handle your needs.

It's working well and easy to install and use. Thanks

My Passport has saved all the photos from my husband's laptop computer that has not been used in the nearly 9 years since his passing. Recovering these has meant so much to me and to our children as well.

Large amount of storage, and helpful that it comes with an adapter for USB ports. Not as sturdy feeling as I’d hoped, but so far has worked sufficiently.

This purchase has worked perfectly. I am very happy that I purchased it!

I was torn between getting this one and an SSD but settle on this one because I got more storage for a cheaper price I use this to edit photos and it is very fast and portable

Excellent. Works great. Great price! Plug and play and super easy to use.

Going on 2 years with it and working perfectly. decnt trasnfer speeds for large files. usb c interface makes for a easy trasnfer without needing to carry multiple cables. (although they are included if needed)

Very useful storage space. Plug and play makes it easy.

I've been using this for a while and works smoothly. It can be encrypted too. Plus is not heavy. You barely notice that you are carrying it with you.
