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.

Since WD designed this My Passport Ultra drive for Windows, it comes preformatted NTFS for Windows 10, 8.1, and 7.

no complaints, nice large drive when overseas & want to back up my images RAW + JPEG. I have about 15 WD drives I use for storage and BU to bank for business and Photography, to date no failures.
Hellen Morissette (verified owner) –
All good. I hope the size and weight reduce as time goes by.
Earnest Hoeger (verified owner) –
I have 4 of these and they all have remained very reliable and are easy to use. They are the best value for TB per dollar and their compact size makes them easy to store. I didn’t think I’d care that much for the colors that are offered, but it helps me differentiate between my different drives. Highly recommended!

WD external drives are my favorite and this one is no exception. I purchased it because I have some problems with a Seagate drive in my toaster and wanted to make sure that I had at least 2 backups for my photos.
Eloise Hettinger (verified owner) –
I use it mostly for backup and for travel. Stores thousand of photo and videos.
Dallin Altenwerth (verified owner) –
Use it to back up my files. It’s easy to use, fast, reliable, portable and quite rugged. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. I already have several My Passport portable hard drives and I continue to buy the same because I have confidence in their performance. Not so great: a little too pushy about extra services/tasks

I’ve been using these WD passport drives for years without issue. They’re fast and reliable. I use them in pairs as temporary backup drives to work from with full backup on a NAS. Great little drives, WD has these much improved aesthetically and overall performance wise over the years
Tyree Legros (verified owner) –

Dalton Kshlerin (verified owner) –
So far works great with Mac OSX. I just reformatted it.
Evalyn D’Amore (verified owner) –
I use it mainly to offload video materials on location at the end of the day for backups or for giving to other people. It usually peaks at speed of 100MB/s with 120MB/s CF cards and around 80-90MB/s for 95MB/s SD cards or for reading from it. Love the fact that it is small, portable, fast, and can hold lots of data. I have several of this, never had a problem.

Excellent drive for data on the go. Small – light and fast.
Edmund Walsh (verified owner) –
I use these for backing up field shoots. Very fast and have had no failures. I have 11 of these.
Quinn O’Keefe (verified owner) –
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.

I just purchased a 2018 Macbook Pro and wanted an external hard drive for its Time Machine software. Came formatted for the Mac and worked without any drama or issues. The drive is boxes with a rather short USB type-C cable and a USB type-A dongle. C-cable fits tightly for a good connection. Ive used the dongle for some older Window devices without issue. Product was in-stock and arrived in a reasonable time. Im very satisfied with my purchase.

I have always trusted Western Digital drives, and this one is no different. Like may others have found, the USB cable is a piece of junk. It doesn’t lock positively in place, and I replaced it with a much better one I already had. Problem solved.
Obie Nienow (verified owner) –
This is my second passport,l use it for my photography. It is very easy to use,and fast. I do a lot of wildlife photography and you only get one chance to get the shot. If my computer should crash,I still have my shots saved on the passport. You can not go wrong with this passport.

I’ve been using the 1tb model for a while and have been more than happy with it. as it nears the 3 year mark I picked this one up as my primary back up scratch disk and will be re-tiring the 1tb version to a 3rd string back up.
Robb Goldner (verified owner) –
The value for the hard drive is insane. It’s 5tb and the material of the hard drive is solid.
Electa Hill (verified owner) –
I use this for backing up video shot on site. The only caveat was that I had to format it for my Macbook Pro before I could use it. Good product at good price.
