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.

Handy as a pocket on a shirt.

Seems like a solid, durable portable drive. The red is a great way to not lose it in the sea of black electronics I have

Excellent drive, was getting 100mps transfer on my photos and mp4 movies, camera videos I have taken. Was very please with the transfer rates and time it took. Will buy again when I get this close to full on the drive. Also love the tiny footprint of the drive. Takes up no room.

Have been using this drive for now about a month, and absolutely loving it. I use it now as my main back up and storage drive, and put about 3 old drives worth of content on it, and use old ones as secondary back up… yeah maybe too much, but love how much space this one has, and the security password, and other options that come with it make it even better. Haven’t been happier with a drive before like this one. Definitely recommended.

I bought this to back up my external drive so basically I am backing up my backup. It requires no power except the USB port. Plug it in, backup, unplug it and put it away. It ready for use right out of the box. Love it !!

Bought this to backup my PC hard disk. Used the WD SmartWare to do automated backups and it seems to work pretty well.
Jordy Luettgen (verified owner) –
These hard drives work fantastically well. I was able to transfer large amounts of data, about 200+ gigabytes at a time, with no trouble at all. They’re easy to pack and store, great for a traveling.

Can’t say much about anything that has not happened yet. But I can say it’s a solid drive. It’s not as fast as an SSD but it gets the job done and does it without raising the ambient room temperature. It’s a quiet little guy. Almost reminds me of a Prius.

I am using this Passport Ultra drive as a general media backup drive. The transfer speeds are very fast at USB3.0 but can function fine when plugged into a USB2.0 source. Optional password protection a plus.

Love the size. One complaint(I noticed someone else had mentioned) The connection cord is EASILY disconnected. NOT like my other WD drives this size. Gotta be careful not to touch when working. Maybe some duct tape is called for.
Modesta Medhurst (verified owner) –
This hard drive it is very small and it doesn’t need external power. It is very fast and it comes with USB-C adapter to USB 2, so I can use it on my MacBook Pro and my older iMac.
Sabina Hammes (verified owner) –
I love this drive. It is fast, compact, and has 2TB of storage. The included backup software is automatic and very helpful. And the encryption gives peace of mind if the drive is ever lost or stolen. I highly recommend this drive.

Second one of these we own. Use one each to back up our computers.

Truly a Plug and Play bit of gear. It does come preloaded with some software that tries to sell you stuff from WD’s partners but after you figure out what is needed and what isn’t – no complaints at all. Durable, Compact, little to no heat generation… pretty much what you’d expect from a portable 2TB Hard Drive.
