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.

With a canon 5D Mark lll camera I needed a large hard drive to trace with and this was the perfect size.

Very affordable and trusted.

Works as I’d expect. Didn’t come with a carrying pouch like my less expensive 1TB version though.
Hoyt Russel (verified owner) –
Easy setup. Used other brands before. Had problems. WD is the only one I use now.

Great drive, I’ve had these and the smaller ones for years. Reliable drives, traveled well with me, just protect from large shocks.

I use these drives to backup all our digital footage, and they are in the company color. Easy to throw into my back pack and bring to shoots.

Xbox one memory was really low wiyh the sad 500gb they give you so did some research and like the reviews for this 2tb drive, Took about 2 min from unpacking it to formatting and it was recognized by xbox one and working, this review is about 2 1/2 weeks after purchase and no problems. Worth it, xbox recommends a specific external brand but I think its just because they have a deal with seagate.

Seems to be great so far. Compact, light and easy to travel with. Seems a bit slower than my conventional (non-portable) external HD, but it’s still a great drive.
Lenore Medhurst (verified owner) –
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. 🙂

This hard drive is a good buy for the money. It works well, has a nice design and is very small. I am satisfied with this drive for what it’s being used for, but there is one issue I have with it.The main problem I have with this hard drive is the time it takes to become ready when it comes out of sleep or stand-by mode. Given this is a bus powered hard drive, it enters sleep mode after minutes of inactivity. I have a smiliar drive, the Western Digital Elements 1TB drive, and whenever it enters sleep mode it only takes 4-6 seconds to become ready. With this drive, WD Passport Ultra, it takes anywhere from 15-20 seconds. This issue is problematic for me since I need quick access to my files. It is not a serious issue, but it can get frustrating over time.Other than that problem, the drive performs nicely. The transfer speed via USB 3.0 is good (anywhere from 40-80MBps) and its size is great.

Great disks for time machine back up. Now I can keep one off site and cycle the two disks.

Purchased 2x 5TB. I have had several My Passport’s over the years, and never had one fail or any issues. I wanted the USB-C ports, as that’s the future and it makes it easy having such a common port. Sure they’re not the fastest drives (compared to SSD), but at this price and HUGE capacity they are ideal for storing photos/videos. I use one as a Plex server. Highly recommend
Dandre Pollich (verified owner) –
This was easy to use and I would recommend it.

I had to reformat it for my Macbook Pro but it was definitely worth it! Fast transfer speed and large storage to keep all my photos, videos and documents! Plus Really fast shipping to Canada! Great buy.
