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.

I LIKE WD EXTERNAL DRIVE. IT IS COMPACT SIZE AND LOOKS VERY DELICATE. I AM LEARNING HOW TO USE IT. THANK YOU B&H

Very compact. I formatted the drive for HFS+ journaled for my Mac Air, then tested it using the Blackmagic Disk Speedtest software and I was getting approximately 100MB/s read and write speeds. Great for temporary onsite backup of my photos.

We bought this to replace a backup drive that crashed at work. It is nice and compact – which I like since I take one off site each week. I can just slip it in my purse. We have now ordered two – in different colors. So, no mistake as to which is which. We have only been using it about a week, so I cannot comment on durability. But, so far, so good!

Arrived packed well and performed as expected. Software acceptable. Was not disappointed in performance or quality. Only draw back was unit had less than 4 TB. (3.5 TB) The 1 TB passport I am is full, so I got this for additional back-up. Would not purchase any other brand. Would have given 5 stars if storage was 4 TB.

I’ve used an older model WD My Passport Ultra external hard drive as a backup for my iMac since 2013 and was happy with it. With this new model, however, the Type-C cable supplied with it did not plug securely into my iMac. I later found that this is a common complaint on another site. At no charge, B&H replaced the cable with a better one that fit properly. The device was very easy to set up with Time Machine: just plug into Type-C port of iMac, go to System Preferences, select Time Machine, unlock via Admin, and start backup.

About four years ago I got a new laptop, custom assembled by the manufacturer. I choose the largest drive 750 GB and they even shrunk that by using it for back-up — Back up on the primary drive!! I like to take RAW photos and those ca 30 GB shots start to take space. So 2TB seemed like a dream and so far I have not been disappointed. I do plan to use it for back-up and to provide space for other things.

In a blink of an eye it was at my door. My new WD 3TB My Passport Ultra had sleek packaging and easy directions to set up. All I did was reformat it for my apple which was a snap. Although I have not yet used it my children have been and say its the best, in my house we call it Blue. Thanks guys!

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.

Using this to back up video during location production. Heavier than I expected. Non deluxe enclosure, but who cares?

EASE of use.

I own 2 of these drives and am using this one for video storage. As anyone working with video knows – you need space, and this device provides. USB 3.0 support is great. WD knows HDDs and their portable drives are more than capable.

Love these Passport USB 3.0 drives. I own several in the last 2 years, and none have given me any issues so far. Nice not to have use a separate power cord.
Ethan Rath (verified owner) –
Works excellent. doesn’t work with XP though.
Rosamond Orn (verified owner) –
It is a nice drive. I own many of their usb drives. It would nice to have 2 separate cables versus an adapter that can be lost easily.
