Customer Ratings & Reviews

I needed a back up device that had enough memory and that would seamlessly work in the background to create backups through Time Machine on the Mac. It does just that. Very easy to set up and I can hear it when it starts to back something up, so you have that assurance that things are working properly.

Easy to hook up to my Mac mini. compact size. great back up.

Sturdy and helpful to use when saving large amounts of items. The wire could be better.

Turn-key with my Mac. Works great so far! It's pretty speedy too.

I use this WD drive as a backup for my MacBook Air and my wife's iMac. It is very easy to use, small, and reliable. I have made 4 partitions on it for different uses. Both the WD backup and the Apple TimeMachine both work with it.

Better than I expected & easy to use! I have so much room on this I can put all my data from photo & tablet & a laptop & still have plenty more! Definitely recommend this! Don’t limit yourself get this one & you can save, for example, all your photographs from beginning to current & keep adding. What a perfect way to keep all your memories in 1 drive rather than some here & some there, worrying about Syncing, etc. Just plug in & store!

Fast with high storage- This was plug and play with no issues so far.

I was very pleased with this b/u drive. It’s pre formatted for Mac computers and has USB C connection as well as an adapter for old school USB. The price is good for 4TB of storage.

Good value. Decent speed and capacity. Easily portable

Fast Speeds Easy To Use Love That It Is Now Using Usb C

This hard drive is a great amount of space and speed for the price. The option to use USB-C or USB-3 is very handy since I need to switch between newer and older computers often.

This hard drive is very easy to use and compatible with my MacBook. I like its size, it’s very compact for a terabyte! Plug and play compatibilty is amazing

Does everything it's supposed to do, very happy with it.

This hard drive is great for file storage and backing up my Macbook Pro using Time Machine. It's fast, easy to use, and has worked very reliably.

What I love the most about this is: 1. It has an aluminum body which just makes you feel more confident that it can survive if you were to drop it. 2. It’s completely compatible with macbooks. There’s other passports made for a pc and if you want to use it for a macbook, you have to reformat the passport so it’s compatible with MacBook which is a hassle. Plus there’s tons of memory in here so you don’t even have to worry about it running out.

Still havent had any issues with it to me and my style of use its perfect and with my mac mini works amazing. Speed its great transferring large files and still fast, for my video editing and pictures amazing no complaint yet.

Easy to use, compact, good overall value. Only knock against it has been that it doesn’t always want to eject from my Mac, especially if the computer has gone to sleep while the WD HD is connected and then after logging back in you try to eject, I often get a dialogue box that says the drive is busy and can’t be ejected, despite the fact that there is nothing being saved or opened. However it is hard to say if this is the drive or Mac OS 11.

It's fast, it's efficient, small so doesn't take up much real estate. The software that came with it wouldn't load on my Mac (Catalina) but no big deal for me, I'm only using it for extra storage. I have a NAS for back-ups. If you want it for backing up your Mac, you may get lucky or you may have to spend some time on the phone with tech support. Didn't test it on a windows machine so can't speak to that.

I’ve always had an easy to me pairing WD externals with my MacBook. I use this with Time Machine to back up my laptop and it’s always a breeze to use

This is the fourth WD My Passport I have purchased. Bought two My Passport for work laptops and two MP Ultra for Mac for personal use. Easy to use, no problems doing daily backups.
