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.

NAS based TimeMachine Backups work great, but not ideal if you need to be portable. I have this hooked up to my dock, and it works great and a bit fast and small too while comparing it w/ older generation ones.

The 2TB hard drive is a extremely solid unit and appears to be very durable. I own several for photo backup and they have performed flawlessly.

DOWS NOT WORK AND STALLS MY WHOLE MACBOOK OS. Worked for about 2 minutes. I connected to my mbp, which recognized it. Then tried to move some files onto it, upon which process this drive got stuck at certain number of files, and stopped working. Froze my whole operating system. After that the system does not see it, neither in Finder nor in Disk utility, what’s more when I run disk utility with this drive plugged in, not even my hard drive shows up. If I remove it, my hard drive shows up. This is simply a dangerous piece of low quality tech. Unfortunately, I tested this product late, as I was busy with work, so the period for returns had passed. I purchased a Samsung T5 which so far works flawlessly. It is much more expensive so I bought this cheaper drive just to have second backup, but as you can see it is useless.

Often need to take a gigs of work related data with me when I travel (or work from the beach). My laptop has a small SSD. Passport drive provides me with the portable data solution I need. It is inexpensive, small, and transfers data quickly. It has a quality feel. Previous experience with WD drives has been good, hoping this one will prove to be as reliable.

Great item to have to save my raw files.

With all of my documents on the go and all of that are in a portable HD in hand, WD 4TB is my champ.
Sean Yundt (verified owner) –
This drive is well built and comes with a three year warranty which I hope means it is built to last and with higher quality components.

Very nice looking drive that works great.
Jefferey Greenfelder (verified owner) –
quiet , runs reasonably fast. I have used this for a week or so and it does as expected. I did not use the backup software. (i never trust any of them). But for the size and price it was a good deal
Cassandre Miller (verified owner) –
You have to really jam the connector pieces together or else your Mac won’t read it but once set up it works great!
Ethelyn Douglas (verified owner) –
I have had many WD hard drives and haven’t had a failure yet. Great size for packing and it has many storage options. I know how tough these drives are since my wife dropped it several times from about 2 feet on to cement. Still working.
Kip Bayer (verified owner) –
Compact, works faithfully and quiet. I average maybe 85Mbps using the drives with my Asus All-In-One desktop computer. I have 4 of these drives plugged into a corded HUB. But my speeds are the same, whether plugged into the HUB or directly into the computer. I stream movies from the drives with no problems and transfer files on and off the drive continuously with no problems. I have put each of my 4 drives in the Western Digital Nomad hard case and they do not overheat and stay new looking. I recommend buying these drives. Now I’m wanting to buy one of the metallic ones!
