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 use the hard drive to back up my Surface Pro 2 computer and save working files for quick access. I plan to attach this to my Router to provide my own Cloud Storage

It does what it claims (holds data). The encryption software is easy to use. Seems like a good value.

I’m using this product to back up my laptop computer as well as to store almost 1TB of Elevation Church sermons to watch weekly while serving overseas for the next 12 years as a missionary doctor. It stores and retrieves quickly, no glitches. I like the red color, but the surface doesn’t have little ventilation holes as it appears in the photo, they’re just part of the finish. If that’s all I can find wrong, then it must be a pretty good product. I purchased a small red Case Logic holder for it which was a perfect fit.

I have many WD external drives – portable and desktop. So far, I’ve had good performance from all of them.

Bought 2 of these hard drives. One of them crashed the first day I tried to use it. The other one is still working but I won’t trust it with important files. Unfortunately, I am past the return period so I guess I am stuck with them.

I am a wedding filmmaker and need portable drives in order to store and back up my films. This drive does that well, it isn’t necessarily the fastest to transfer files to but serves it’s purpose. I bought this when it was discounted and it is well worth it

Great drive, I’ve had these and the smaller ones for years. Reliable drives, traveled well with me, just protect from large shocks.

I’m using my passport as a backup device. I like the size, it’s small enough to take with me when I leave the house. Living close to the Gulf that’s a plus. I also like the 1TB capability.
