    I really just bought this drive because I needed to get an adapter for USB-C, but you can never have enough good drives in production world. So far it's been a great drive and helpful large capacity.

    The drive checked all the boxes I needed: USB3.0 external 3yr warranty I also purchased when it was very heavily discounted. I have had decent experience with WD drives, all the way back the the Raptor 10k drives, so I continue to purchase them as needed. the encryption is a plus.

    Great price, nicely packaged, but it seems a bit slower on my backup of about 140 GB, it takes about 3 hours for a full backup but a typical incremental backup is about 3 minutes. I am pleased with it and I got a lot of storage it is 5 times the capacity of my other faster drive.

    My 1st My Passport Ultra 2TB external drive has served me well since its purchase in 2014. This is why I have recently purchased a 2nd drive with 4TB since I now require additional backup storage space. I expect it will perform just as well as my first. This is why I highly recommend Western Digital for your source of external drives.

    WD drives have always been and will continue to be the best around. In metal and with the more durable USB-C connector? A winning formula, go ahead and buy if you're in the market!

    I bought this external hard drive to extend the storage of my apps on my NVIDIA Shield. It did what I wanted it to do as my Shield only had 16 gigs on internal storage. I can't speak ok the encryption software? The NVIDIA formats the entire drive for it's use. So far I'm happy with it. Although BestBuy rarely gives you time to truly evaluate a product before they want their review.
