Description
Expand the storage on your Windows system and back up photos, video, music, and documents using the silver 1TB My Passport Ultra USB 3.0 Type-C External Hard Drive from WD. This drive is equipped with 1TB of storage and a USB 3.0 Type-C interface. If your computer doesn’t have a USB Type-C port, an included USB Type-C to Type-A adapter helps ensure compatibility with older systems. This drive is also bus-powered, meaning that all its power is provided by the USB cable and no external power cables or adapters are required.
Since WD designed this My Passport Ultra drive for Windows, it comes preformatted NTFS for Windows 10, 8.1, and 7. If you happen to work across both Windows and Mac platforms, WD provides a downloadable NTFS driver for macOS, which enables the reading and writing of this My Passport Ultra drive without any reformatting. Or, make it fully Mac compatible with a simple reformat. Thanks to a 256-bit AES hardware encryption chip, your private files are kept more secure.

I love this product. Transportable, Affordable, Big Storage space. The only real problem is it isn’t all that fast. But if you are a bit patient. That’s fine. I use it for business applications and film transfer. So far, so good.

Easy Set up no additional power needed fast back up speed Great price

It’s reasonably fast, rugged, and compact. And I should add stable. I bought a G-Tech drive R series drive for 3 times the price and it proved to be a bust. Granted, I wouldn’t want to stream audio of off the Passport but I bought it for storage and backup, and it’s perfect for that.

The bottom line is how long they last. These units are replacing four Seagate 4TB portable drives that all failed after a year of very light use.

I use these hard drives to edit video on FCPX. They are fast enough for editing and reliable for storing client footage and files. They are convenient as I often shuttle them between home and work computers to work on projects.

This portable drive was supposed to be a plug and play device but all I kept getting was errors. First I was getting the error The request failed due to a fatal device hardware error, then after several tries and switching of USB port I got the error The file of directory is corrupted and unreadable. I found out about the WD Drive Utilities software, downloaded it and ran the test on the drive which after several tries would not pass the second test. From the same utilities I decided to delete and format the drive and then finally it became what it was supposed to be a simple plug-and-play installation. Just when I was getting ready to call seller to return the drive. So far it seems to be working (kind of slower than I expected but is working). I don’t think I would buy a similar product from same manufacturer again. This experience gave me the feeling that the drive, although working for now, it may break down too soon.

Slow, not reliable, I can not trust in this hard Drive, I lost a lot info and I bought 2 of them. Worst

I use the drive to backup my pc. It is very cheap portable storage that be moved to off-site location. The drive has very fast transfer rate and comes with a backup scheduling software. You can place files on the my-passport and delete them from your PC. The backup software will not delete during the next scheduled backup.

Great service, great pricing, great value

Easy to use, just plug usb into computer and it’s set to go. I don’t have usb 3.0 so my experience is not as great as it would be with a faster transfer rate. Nonetheless, it’s light, portable, holds a ton of data, and is reasonably priced.
