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.

Easy, compact, fun colors – just what I needed!

Cool storage option and it is very handy. WD is always reliable. Small and handy.

The WD brand is very thick, almost seems like a hard disk from 2 years ago. Not convincing enough that this is a 2016 model. The Seagate and other competitive brands are much sleeker. I also have the Seagate 2 tb model which I love. i am not getting the comparable disk speed either when using it with my macbook 13 air, so I’d recommend NOT getting this brand. I didn’t want to go through the hassle of shipping back as a return and then order another one as I don’t plan on travelling with the WD disk, but unless WD comes up with a better model – I’m very disappointed with this purchase.

I like this product because it is well designed. The hard drive is smooth and can not hear any noise.
Raphaelle Osinski (verified owner) –
These WD drives are a goof buy! This is my third and I’m very happy with them! Anyone who doesn’t back-up their stuff is going to pay for it eventually!!!!!

simple, slim, and portable.

I use to store video clips
Kathryne Parker (verified owner) –
Not all external hard drives are compatible with the DVR+. Easy to set up, lots of storage capacity for movies and TV shows.
Ilene Hintz (verified owner) –
I purchased this to save tens of thousands of yearbook photos from previous years. It was very simple to use. It took several hours to save the photos, but that is only because there were so many.
Giovanny Ledner (verified owner) –
Everything I have bought from the store has the best value.
Keagan Goldner (verified owner) –
I burn through a lot of HD’s in my business and I’ve found that the WD brand hard drives are the most reliable. I haven’t experienced any trouble with these and I’m currently on my 8th one in 3 years (knocks on wood).

USB 3.0 makes it fast, it is very quiet, and it does not require an external power source. Add to it Western Digital reliability in a compact package and I don’t see how it could get much better. I use it to hold images and music files before archiving them. The included software even monitors the temperature of the drive for safe operation. Five stars!
Webster Frami (verified owner) –
This is a good choice for local backups. Password protection and hardware encryption are nice features. Data transfer is fast, but not as fast as I would have expected on a USB 3.0 interface. The drive’s design is compact and it seems to be quite sturdy. I use my own backup software rather than the supplied WD SmartWare which I find awkward to use.
Ellsworth Kuhic (verified owner) –
Love the portable size and great storage capacity. Easy to take anywhere and it’s fast to access all my stuff.
Katelynn Kautzer (verified owner) –
When I plugged it in… had to go into the C drive to open each WD file to allow it to run. No window popped up.
Newton Konopelski (verified owner) –
Very nice price/quality relation. It works fast (not the fastest disk I’ve used though). Nice to feel metal on a hard drive you’ll drop 4TB of data. I would buy this again.
Sean Herman (verified owner) –
Drive is quiet and compact. At first I couldn’t get it to work on my Mac but after using the Western Digital format utility that came with the drive, my Mac was able to write to it
Chance Jakubowski (verified owner) –
So many pictures, needed this capacity.
Mellie Strosin (verified owner) –
I am a photographer and keep all my files on these external drives. The WD 5TB offers great capacity in a small lightweight package. These drives have always performed well for me.
Guy Anderson (verified owner) –
Compact and fast: USB 3.0. I transferred 500GB from another storage unit very quickly and easily. Use it often for my backups: so far so good.
