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.

Reliable. Compact. Fast.

I had no problem loading the programs that came with it, but they don’t work properly. Reason being, the backup program is proprietary to Western Digital and doesn’t always work like they should. I had to erase/format the entire drive and used the windows backup program which performed flawlessly.

I really love these little drives. I have six of them now. Their compact, rugged, fast and simple to use. Since they are USB-C powered you just plug it in and starts up. The USB-C connection is fast. I highly recommend them. 🙂

Been using this drive for a few weeks now. Works great, was super easy to format to use with Mac. 3.0 USB is faster than my old drives. I can edit footage easily and directly off of this in premiere pro cc no problems & no dropped frames. Great hard drive.

Fast, fast, fast, reliable, enormously spacious, completely bus-powered, elegant, solid yet light, non-smudging aluminum housing, physically small (just a little bigger than a deck of cards), silent, and outstanding build quality compared to most drives in its class which are housed in plastic ? the perfect portable, external HDD for highly reliable backups or transport of large files at an eminently reasonable price.

How you use the product: Transport files between work and home Things that are great about it: Small and lightweight. Things that aren’t so great about it: Nothing so far. Worth the small premium for the 3 year warranty.

Recently purchased the 2TB gem as part of a portable Premiere Pro 2015 CC rig on an ASUS K501 laptop with a 250gig solid state drive, i7duo core processor and NVida GForce GTX video card. Loaded a 3 minute sequence with roughly 300 source clips and there is no noticeable lag with the clips being store on the USB 3.0 connected drive. Have to say I’m siked to have a fully functioning HD editing platform. This is my third WD drive so as you can see I’m speaking with my dollars when I say it’s been a great drive so far.

I bought this to keep backups of my document, photo and music files in a safe location. I’ve used the 500 GB and 1 TB versions successfully, and this one works just as well.
Alf Flatley (verified owner) –
Easy to transfer files and small enough to store.
Fletcher Johnston (verified owner) –
I’ve been using Western Digital drives for the past 10 years. To date I have been more than satisfied with each purchase. This drive is no exception to the rule. The passport is great due to being pocket sized (roughly the size of a galaxy s4) and fast at the same time. The backup software is easy to use.
Dina Watsica (verified owner) –
I work between an office and my home and need an easy way to transport large files. I use a 1TB drive for work and bought a 2TB drive for myself. This has done the trick and is very easy to use. I did need to reformat the drive for a Mac which is also easy to do. I just looked up the directions on line and it took about a minute.
Deanna Corkery (verified owner) –
Very easy to use. Plug in the USB cable and copy your files to it. Or, use back software. It has already saved me from a virus that encrypted my hard drive.
Gaetano Weimann (verified owner) –
The product is easy to use. I mostly use it to store pictures that I take. Love the amount of data that I can store and not clog up my personal computer.
Ernie Huels (verified owner) –
I work with motion graphic. need to save a lot of projects. this device can handle completely. I just love it.

What more can I say 🙂

Love these drives! I buy them 3 at a time so that I can run backups on multiple computer. One is the main drive and the other 2 act as a backup. They are well priced and very dependable. I will continue to buy them and as the sizes get larger, I will get those as well.
