I purchased this passport to hold all my pictures and music it was overwhelming for my laptop. It has all and space for more and has worked out quite well.

Writes pretty quickly but operates best as NFTS format

Love this drive. I didn’t even realize it was USB-C until I got it. I’m glad peripheral makers are finally jumping on board the USB-C bandwagon. It’s much better than the existing USB format and almost all of my devices within the past 2 years have a port. It does include a USB-C to USB-A adapter in case you need to use it on an older computer. 4TB of storage is overkill for most people, you could easily backup your computer and store much more on it at the same time. Definitely the best feature of this drive is the built-in hardware encryption. Without it, anyone could plug in your drive and view all of your personal files. Having it built into the hardware allows you to have security without the performance hit that you get with software encryption. It’s also super easy to use, just plug in the drive, install the WD Secure software, and click the option to set a password. It will even work on PCs without WD Secure installed by launching a special virtual disc that will allow you to unlock your drive. As a bonus, it includes an NTFS driver and the WD Secure software to allow your encrypted drive to work on macOS also! However, on macOS Mojave (the latest) you will need to contact the vendor of the driver to get the latest version. The one included on my drive did not support Mojave. Works great with the latest version though! Unfortunately I don’t think Linux users will be able to take advantage of the hardware encryption features but the drive should work just fine without security if you format it for a Linux based file system. Pros Metal build USB-C! 256-bit AES Hardware Encryption Mac or Windows Compatibility Includes Backup Software Includes USB-C to USB-A adapter. 3 Year Warranty Cons: No Linux Compatibility (for hardware encryption)

Exactly what I needed to back up my data from my laptop. Fast and plenty of disk space.

Bought this hard drive for a long business trip to store movies and pictures. Was easy to use on my both my PC and my Mac. Great price as well!

I am approaching capacity with my 3TB drive and needed the 4TB to accommodate many very important video files related to my consulting business.

What a Workhorse of a Hard Drive. More than enough space for all of my media files. Love this Hard Drive.

Just another winner from WD. very fast drive for moving lots of files. I used it to back up my nas drive for drive replacement.

Used it for my ps5. So I can save the PS4 games there and open space on the ps5 storage for the ps5 games

Works good, gotten a few of these and they all do well. I did have an issue with this one and had to call tech service which took an hour out of my day.

This is amazing! Got it as a back up and for a more portable version. easy set up/conversion for a Mac.

I have a desktop, high-end computer with 6TB total storage. The WD Passport 4TB with a USB 3.0 port makes the backup a perfect spot for my backups.

Drive was fine but Geek restored another drive to this one and formatted is so it was read only and could not be used as an active drive. I had to buy another drive like this copy the files to a properly formatted drive. Once done I returned this one.

I use external drive for my movies pictures videos that take space on my 1000tb nvme it come in good store a daya fot future use

Bought this to do images/backups. Works fine as advertised.

One of the best things you can purchase for your video, pictures and music

Bought to use as a back up. The 4 GB capacity is great.

Excellent and sturdy back up drive. I’ve had it for a few months and it’s been a reliable drive with no issues. Like the usb3 connectivity.

The product size is acceptable. The quality is good but not the best. It is good for ok price. I like it and recommend it

After downloading various apps associated with the unit - I had several days of interrupted usage. After finally removing the password protection - seems to be working. Had other units such as Free Agent Go Flex - that worked correctly after initial plug in
