    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.

    I was looking for a large drive to hold a Backup Master Lightroom Catalog and copy of all my photos scattered across 6 external drives (approximately 3TB). I’ve always been a little partial to Western Digital, so this drive fit the bill and being already formatted was a plus. The protect is still in progress, but I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

    Needed to back up our iMac computer, so we chose this WD Passport ultra for Mac. It was easy to set-up and easy to use. Did exactly what we needed. Had no problems to mention. Would recommend.

    This is an excellent, high performing product for working with my Macbook Pro and iMac. I have made several purchases of this portable hard drive for my family. I definitely would recommend it as a high priority in keeping your electronics maximizing their performance and ensuring plenty of memory.

    I bought this to use for with my new desktop Mac for making Time Machine backups. It seems to be perfect for that. It sits unobtrusively behind my monitor, quietly making backups 24/7.

    I kept getting a memory comment on my Mac book pro saying running out of memory so we bought this 4TB external drive - its so easy to sue I have transferred all my large files to it so we could free up space on the main Mac book.

    This is easy to use and perfect to back up all the photos that take up all your Gmail drive memory. Our Gmail drives actually do reach capacity when you have a lot of photos to save! I also needed something extra to save photos and files I had on my USB flash drives. This is great!

    Before purchasing this beautiful design of micro technology. I was using the WD passport Ultra. My MacBook would read it, however it would disconnect at random times(mainly durIng transfer of large video files). I finally reached my limit and found that WD has a drive just for Mac. Well, I’m now four days in and transferring files with ease. Go buy now!

    I have used several WD hard drives over the years and this has been one of the slowest. I can not use Final Cut Pro X with files on this drive because it’s just not fast enough. For other storage it’s great but I use a lot of storage with making videos on Final Cut Pro

    Great storage device, compact, lots of room. Drawbacks, loud and if the computer goes to sleep while plugged in, I often have to unplug it and plug it in again to locate files.

    I bought 4 TB storage for my boyfriend who does a lot of photoshop. He has the new Mac book pro so this works for him on the go. It’s a good travel size that holds a lot of storage.
