This particular drive works rather well in that it has reasonable transfer speeds, and it does not generate high temperatures in the process.

Lightweight and faster than I expected. Plenty of space for the stuff I do like photography, drawing and 3d modeling. Had to format it a certain way to get it to work with my macbook

This passport with 4 TB is very fast and an excellent device for back up, and storing away. I highly recommend having at least one external USB drive. Great space for the buck!

Full discloser, it's been several years since I researched external hard drives. When I found this product I had to ask an employee if it truly is this much storage in such a small transportable case. Once at home I was able to easily set it up with a couple partitions with time machine also set up so our MacBook Air. We now had 16x more storage space (4T) for photos, videos, backups, etc.

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.

Using for my ps5 game storage, no issues! It's important to not bang these drives around too much and to do multiple backups. I have had a WD that I used for my PC fail on me before, but I literally dropped it on a very hard ground while on vacation. It's important to try to keep these ones secure and practice double backup (a cloud storage preferably, as all hard drives eventually will fail).

4 terabytes of storage in a well-built enclosure, and it's one of a small number of external hard drives with a USB-C connection that didn't cost an arm and a leg. Works like any other external hard drive, albeit well-made and compatible with the new crop of laptops that sometimes only have a type-C connector.

So, let me start off this review by saying that the reason why I bought this drive was because my previous WD 4 TB drive failed. So why would I buy another one? I wanted one with a USB-C drive so that I could use it with my ultrabook without a dongle. This one was the cheapest USB-C drive I could find. Plus, it's small, light, and attractive in silver. I'm planning on getting another one in another color to serve as back up.

I am getting ready to use this. I love that it has 4 TB and a USB-C with an adapter if I needed for USB-A. I have a USB-C port in my HP laptop.
I already have a 2 TB version and it also came with the same cables, and I enjoy using it.

I purchased the WD-My Passport Ultra External Hard Drive to store my photos. The files for my photos can be quite large and it was necessary to have a drive large enough and reliable enough to store my files without worrying about losing them. The WD-My Passport Ultra is the perfect solution.
