This failed almost just two months of usage. Absolute no drop or any of the sort. It’s just stopped reading. I had high expectations of WD but was disappointed, just like others that failed too. Either I’m not lucky or WD is just pure garbage now. Sigh!! Time to find another option.

I have been using WD portable USB connected drives for many years. This speedy and reliable drive is excellent for moving high numbers digital photos (@ 24Mb to 28 Mb each) around.

It’s a fine drive – works as advertised.

I have yet to use this one but I very much like these for backup files and system work. Save SSD for processing.
Daphne Shanahan (verified owner) –
I was hesitant to purchase this as in the past I purchased a 4gb drive that was extremely slow to load. Just the opposite with this drive it loads fast and it was easy to install.

I’ve been using the WD 2TB, 4TB, and 6TB hard drives since the start of my professional career and I haven’t had a single issue since. The WD 2TB has been the perfect travel hard drive for countless adventures and continues to be a reliable and trusting safety storage for all my images the past 6 years.

It’s small, as beautiful as discrete and with 2Tb!
River Bins (verified owner) –
This is my 5th Passport. I keep buying the larger ones as I get more and more stuff to backup. Use my old, smaller ones to backup those! All work great. None have failed in 10 years or more.
Clement Bins (verified owner) –
Great product!
Victoria Bergnaum (verified owner) –
This is a great drive for either exchanging files between companies or for long term local storage. Would absolutely buy it again and again. Ships very easily to vendors.
Germaine Beer (verified owner) –
Everything worked as it should. came with the right cables and connected right up and instructions to get it functional were straight forward.
Camren Kuhic (verified owner) –
Price was great. Shipped quickly. Works great. No regrets.
Luna Gerhold (verified owner) –
I already use a western digital external hard drive. As my Mac’s internal drive is almost full, I wanted to transfer items to an other external hard drive. Of course, I chose the same brand as my other reliable drive, the Western Digital My Passport for Mac.
Walton Crooks (verified owner) –
Easy to use. Just take it out of the package and plug it in to your MacBook. I was running out of space, and now I have space!
