great storage
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendWanted an SSD drive to replace my other external drive. Works great. Just wish the cord were longer, though. I had to get a Usb extension cord so it doesn’t just dangle from the desktop.

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I used this to double the storage on my PS4 Pro. It did just that. I kind of wish I would have gotten a 2 TB SSD external hard drive. I'll look into that when my storage is full again

Quality2 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Bought this thinking it was a great deal but its so flimsy. I would be scare of carrying in my messenger laptop bag. Bought a metal case on instead. The other think most of these new drives only have 2 year warranty For keeping next to a desktop in a desk, may be OK

What experts are saying
Q: Questionwhat is the transfer rate
Asked by Don.
- A:Answer Hi Don, My Passport™ Go is the tough SSD drive built to travel. With a rubber protective bumper on the outside, a solid state drive on the inside, and a built-in cable for convenience; this is no ordinary drive. At more than 2.5x faster than most portable hard drives, the My Passport™ Go portable drive delivers SSD performance of up to 400MB/s. For more information on the drive refer to the link: http://products.wdc.com/library/AAG/ENG/4078-705138.pdf -Need Help? Please see our "'Contact Us" page for information.

Q: QuestionCan you transfer directly from a card reader without a computer?
Asked by Stratprof.
- A:Answer Unless it’s a smart reader that can do that transfer and power up the drive on its own, then no. This is just a dummy device. It’s storage. You’ll still need something to tell it what to copy and where.
Answered by Cleverbacon
Q: QuestionCan a WD Passport Go have a factory reset and still work as if new so I can start over? I screwed up and it appears to be backing up my desktop C & D in a couple different folders because it says it's full, yet my desktop usage should not have filled it.
Asked by Chris.
- A:Answer You can always format the drive and start from scratch, but it sounds like you have some sort of auto backup running. You’ll want to stop that if you’re not wanting to fill up the drive automatically.

Q: QuestionCan I use this to play games with my pc?
Asked by Amend.
- A:Answer Yes, of course you can use it to play games on a PC. This is compatible with PC, MAC, PS3/PS4, Xbox 360/Xbox One, and just about any other device or system that uses the USB 3.0 port for connectivity (I have no idea why Western Digital answered this question at all if they were going to just post some totally unrelated copy/paste nonsense...LOVE WD hard drives & SSDs, but that was a seriously whack brainless tech monkey response...do better WD!)
