    The product shows to be compatible with Windows and Mac OS systems. It is only fully compatible with Mac OS systems after it is reformatted for the Mac. At this time it is read only compatible with Windows systems. I have an older smaller capacity WD Passport that is read write compatible with both OS and Windows systems. Not recommended if you have multiple operating systems and want a single storage device.

    The 3T Passport is, like its predecessors, handy and small to travel with but holds a large amount of data, including PowerPoint lectures.. It is a USB plug and use item.

    Love that 3T is now in passport size, not bulky like the external that you have to have power to use. It fits in your purse easy or your travel bag. I bought 3 of then.

    Can't beat these portable drives, Western Digital makes the most reliable drives in the consumer market. USB 3.0 provides fast response only surpassed by Firebolt.

    If you are looking for an external drive with lots of space and great rpm speed, look no further. WE had 1tb, 2tb up to 8tb I believe for very reasonable pricing

    Easy setup and transparent function monitoring. Three TB is more than enough for home use. The unit's small size and low profile constitute a real space saver.

    Plugged the hard drive directly into my XB1, a window popped up saying it needed to be formatted, took about 3 minutes and has been working great ever since!

    I had been getting Toshiba external hard drives, over 1TB each, and both crapped out on me and ended up losing all my stored data. I haven't had such a problem with the WD passports. I knew I would need the storage capacity, so I doubled down and spent the money and am pleased so far.
