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.

A few weeks ago I copied approximately 2.5TB to my new WD 3TB without any problem. I access the drive on a daily basic. It is connected to my MacBook via a powered USB 3 hub.

First, let me say that product arrived quickly, even w/free shipping. It set up in nothing flat and was working quickly. I am impressed w/B&H, their products and cost.

I use it mainly to offload video materials on location at the end of the day for backups or for giving to other people. It usually peaks at speed of 100MB/s with 120MB/s CF cards and around 80-90MB/s for 95MB/s SD cards or for reading from it. Love the fact that it is small, portable, fast, and can hold lots of data. I have several of this, never had a problem.

Well, it does pretty much what you expect of a hard drive. I bought because it’s cheaper than Lacie and G-drive, but still offers a very good performance and storage capability.

There really isn’t a whole lot to say about this product. It connects to my computer just fine and holds the files that I stored on it. That’s about all I can ask from it and it preformed the tasks well.

the passports drive are outstanding and I am big fan. Unfortunately when i read Ultra Portable on the site contrasting with the old model I understood it would be MORE portable than the old model I have – IT’S NOT. Even the picture shows a slighter device but when it comes to a 2TB the size is the same and the old 2TB device… I little frustrated.

WD has never let me down. At this time, although I made quite a lot of research on this, I ended up (again) on WD. This is fast, reliable, and quiet. With this size, I could carry my daily commute.

It does the job. Plus the matte finished helps with finger prints. I’ll end up getting more of these soon.

With an external hard drive, it is very good to have nothing to report. I have partitioned this drive and I use it as a backup. So far this drive has worked fine, presenting no problems and it looks good.

Great little hard drive. Cheap… But I bought it to store movies on both my WD Media Player and Iomega Media Player. Neither one of them recognized it. So, unless you’re using for a specific USB 2.0 connection, note it isn’t compatible with everything. Otherwise, it’s a good drive ….
