Description
Expand the storage on your Windows system and back up photos, video, music, and documents using the silver 2TB My Passport Ultra USB 3.0 Type-C External Hard Drive from WD. This drive is equipped with 2TB 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.

First one ordered was defective, and B&H immediately replaced it–customer service was stellar! Fast service and free shipping. Replacement drive drive is working without issue as a backup drive. Excellent experience!

had a minor issue last month, called Seagate and they walked me through a fix – probably the best experience ever for tech support!

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.

If you want a backup that’s not on the Cloud, set it up with Time Machine and forget about it.

The 1.5TB tends to be around 1.37TB when you actually plug it in but its because it has all this extra and useful software Western Digital supplies like Drive Utilities, Security and SmartWare. Did I mention it connects with your Dropbox online? 3.0 USB transfer speed is next to none! It doesn’t have a power switch which isn’t THAT bad but it would be useful. All in all, just buy it already!

I purchased 2 My Passport to backup my laptop. The transfer speed is fast and the size is ok to carry.

Given that the 2 TB version only cost a glass of wine more than the 1 TB, it was a no brainer. It is very fast. Only downside is that it is a bit wide. I formatted it so I can use it with my chromebook and it works great. Bought a nice case for it.

4 TB of storage (more than my computer) in a compact, attractive housing. No separate power supply required since it is USB powered. Does not clutter up your desk. A minor negative is the brightness of the white LED. It could almost double as a night light (I just fold a 3×5 card and set it to block the light when the computer and I sleep). I use it with File History set for daily backup. My WD My Book died after just over a year when it was used as a continuous backup. This one has only been in use for about 2 weeks and I’m hoping for better results.

I’m using this drive to store and edit HD (1080i) media with Premiere on our company’s iMacs. Never a problem with slow data throughput.
Shanny Hessel (verified owner) –
I use these hard drives to edit video on FCPX. They are fast enough for editing and reliable for storing client footage and files. They are convenient as I often shuttle them between home and work computers to work on projects.
Mara Smith (verified owner) –
My application is extremely simplistic. As an artist my wife takes thousands of photo’s and needs a safe place to store them in an orderly way. We’ve been using WD My Passports for years and needed to upgrade from a 250MB unit. This 1TB unit should be a great photo repository for several years to come. We use USB 2.0 but expect to upgrade at some point to USB 3.0

I am a photographer with a rapidly growing collection of images that need to be well protected for future availibility. I have had a WD 1TB external drive for about 3 years, and it has been a silent, dependable workhorse at storing my photo data files, but beginning to fill up. Recently bought a much more robust computer to better handle Photoshop processing (i7 processor, 16Gb fast RAM, and a big fat 500 Gb SSD C-drive for extreme file management speed and processing), and I decided to boost my storage capacity. I purchased the pair of WD passport externals, 2 TB each, and set them up for double redundancy. Simple to install, plug ’em in, set up the folders you want backed up, and your done – 10 minutes tops. Very fast, plug into a pair of SS USB 3.0, great price for the pair, and best of all, peace of mind on a large collection of important image data. What’s not to like ??? B&H is the best in the business
