WD 5TB My Passport for Mac USB 3.0 External Hard Drive (Midnight Blue) Purchased 06/10/2020: Backed up my data and storage allows for many additional activities and tasks.

The my passport line of WD has been around for a long time with great reputation and this 2T portable drive is as expected. I had many WD portable hard drives before and this one is the same good value. No issue so far and performs very well.

This is a great hard drive

I purchased 2 of these drives. One of them simply stopped connecting to my computer within a couple months for no apparent reason. The second one became corrupted after about 6 months. If you value your data, don’t buy this drive.

I use this product to copy video files from a television station where we do television programs. I can then use the files on my own computer for editing. It is very compatible with an iMac.
Jaycee Harvey (verified owner) –
Need a separate adapter for newer MacBooks with usbc which is easy to get. I’m able to edit iMovie videos that are up to 30min long (1080p) with no issues.

I use these drives all the time, I carry files back and forth to my office and home, so that I can readily work at home. No cloud for me. These WD drives have been consistently working with rarely a miss for me, which dramatically differs from a WD drive I had (internal) some years back, which died at 3 months, no warning, no recovery, no nothing. These, thankfully, and knock on wood, are the total opposite of that.

I have a couple of these to back up my work. Works perfectly.
Gerson Stehr (verified owner) –
I purchased this as part of a deal for two drives, and it’s excellent. Didn’t need to even set it up for Time Machine backups. After having two hard drives fail, this tiny 1 TB drive is exactly what I needed.
Hilton Ullrich (verified owner) –
Hard drive arrived only a few days after I placed the order. Holds up perfectly and the case is great. Thanks!
Thalia Strosin (verified owner) –
Worlds great. As expected. I’ve got it plugged into an Xbox One X.
Tyrique Kris (verified owner) –
Great portable & fast 3.0 USB Hard Drive. I use it for backing up my computer internal drive and also for storing video when editing via FCP X. No complains!

I am replacing my old 4TB Western Digital drive I have been using for several years. This one is smaller and will provide enough space to back up all of my data.
Graham Kiehn (verified owner) –
Excellent! Perfect size, tidy, compact to fit in my laptop bag. Prompt, professional service. User-friendly website. Thank you.
Jaycee Zemlak (verified owner) –
Works well. Great price. Nice to have 5TB of photos in one place. Easy to back up with WD Discovery
Louvenia Berge (verified owner) –
Said it could back up NAS devices, but only specific ones and not a Synology. So the WD material could have been more informative. My NAS had an alternative that worked just fine with the device. Easy to use out of the box.
