Customer Ratings & Reviews

These external hard drives don't last that long. You gotta just keep everything backed up. Something will go wrong eventually.

Very good. Needs to be partitioned. Runs a tiny bit warm but poses no threat. So far so good

a great solution for compact storage for computers

This was an amazing external hard drive that I use for my PS4

External drive was easy to set up and works as advertised.

Excellent hard drive, honestly no problem with it.

WD is the best hard drive on the market. Very reliable.

4TB and self powering it meets my needs for off site backup

This is not the first and won't probably be the last of these I buy. Works like a champ the only concern I have is that the standard connector is USB C to USB C and, while it comes with a USB C to USB A adaptor, it is an adaptor and you're out of luck without a C port on your computer and no adaptor...don't loose it and this is a great tool!

Good structure, solid. The new usb-c is really fast! Get it!

This western digital drive, although formatted with HFS+ from the beginning, failed on me within a matter of weeks with very minimal use. I had barely used a terabyte of the four total terabytes within this drive, and now it won't show up on my desktop or in Disk Utility. Big no go for mac users. Buyer beware.

It was quick and easy to use, with a great amount of storage

I have had this drive for a little over a year. I'm a photographer, so I have thousands of photos on this thing. This is probably my 5th external hard drive in my career. All of a sudden, the drive will not be recognized on any computer. I have tried changing the cord, using different computers, using the WD software. Nothing. A year's work is gone and I will have to pay someone to try and retrieve it. I won't be purchasing this brand again. I'm heartbroken. Make sure you are backing up your backups!

This hard-drive is okay, however I would recommend purchasing the apple one for apple products.

This is an excellent product for storing all my photos.

Great external drive. Works great, is super fast and we have used it on both a Mac and a PC and it works perfectly.

they Date is fast to receive but if i move to my other laptop it will not connect, my friend also tried it on his laptop would not connect

Seems robust and well made, similar to other WD products. I owned several WD HDDs over the years and never experienced a problem. The old WD HDDs still work. I bought this one solely because of the USB-C connection. I wanted to plug it in my computer without using adaptors. It was very disappointing that the included USB-C cable was bad. The connections did not fit in the USB-C ports on my computer or in the HDD. I had to spend and extra $20 on a new cable. This is the reason for 3 stars, for not recommending to a friend, and only one star for "value".

Works as expected...portable...excellent I/O time...

This passport hard drive is portable and easy to use!
