Q: When I downloaded Minecraft to my external ssd hard drive (I made the options in my settings to download apps to the external hard drive) the game doesnt show up in my ssd files. upgrade my 8gb laptop to 12gb or can this 1tb ssd do good video editing?

A: I don't know what to say I don't play video games on my phone so I would not know how to run Minecraft to Warcraft on your phone all I know is is this device intent is to save and backup files like a thumb drive but using the micro USB port on your phone and it has to be Android OS Jelly Bean or greater to work so if your phone is not an Android phone running the latest version of Android software then you should not purchase this device ask your Geek Squad dude at Best Buy to get the best deal and the best product for your device

Q: Is this Hard drive compatible with a Macbookpro Version 10.12.6 and is there a specific USB mini chord I need to get with this or is the one that comes with just fine?

A: No it is not compatible with Mac it is only compatible with Windows and or Android now the reason why it's compatible with Windows is cuz you're downloading files from your pictures or Word files onto it and transferring them to your smartphone that can run those programs but for the most part it will only work in most cases with a smartphone running Android operation system Jelly Bean or greater if you're not running Jelly Bean OS on your Android phone then don't buy it ask your Geek Squad guy they have versions of this for the Mac my version is only for Windows and Android

Q: Is this the latest model? What is the difference (besides the color) between this drive and the other WD My Passport Ultra 1 TB drives in other colors?

A: Yes, this is the latest model, and there is no difference between the others, except for the color.
