    This USB-C portable hard drive is great, but there's one caveat. It comes with a short USB-C cable and an adapter for standard USB 2.0. But when I tested the speed, using the adapter cut read/write speed by nearly 66%. If you need to use it with an older computer, get a USB-C to USB 2.0 cable. I bought a cheap Anker cable and the speed was just as good as USB-C to USB-C.

    300 GB worth of files to transfer and moved them over in about 30-40 minutes. Being photos and large video files. This device is great! Worth the investment and compact! Simple plug and play. No issues.

    The WD Passport Ultra 4 GB backup hard drive is a good value. Set-up with my HP laptop was a bit of a trial-and-error. The software was not as easy to install and it took me several tries before it cooperated. The first back-up didn't copy all of the files and I later realized that the user must check all of the files/folders on a C drive list. That list was not apparent to me on the first BU. With that said, although opening the icon to get to a new BU is clunky, the actual full BU was a breeze.

    The drive is great for what it's for, and the price is fair. But while Acronis True Image works just fine, WD Discovery is bloated and unnecessary. I would just go to the website and download Acronis. Don't install the software that is included.
