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 used this to backup user data when installing a new computer. It worked perfectly, everything went smoothly, and the data transfer was just what I needed.

Works good – hard to tell how long it will run, but easy initial set up for PC and easy to wipe and reformat to work w/ a Mac using disk utility.

I am using this Passport Ultra drive as a general media backup drive. The transfer speeds are very fast at USB3.0 but can function fine when plugged into a USB2.0 source. Optional password protection a plus.

Right out of the box, the drive would not connect to my Mac. The problem: the included USB-C cable would not fit tightly in the drive’s USB-C socket. Fortunately I had a cable that did fit tightly. Problem solved. HOWEVER the drive constantly disappears from finder after a varying period of time, making the files on it inaccessible. Data has not been lost, but I constantly had to unplug and replug the drive to access my data. (About half the time, safely ejecting the drive didn’t work.) After spending two long chats with WD tech support, and several hours trying to run their Disk Utility (which was unsuccessful since the disk would disappear in the middle), WD informed me that although the disk was only two weeks old, they could not replace it with a new one. This is the third or fourth WD branded disk that I have had, and every one of them has had some problem or another.

Plugging in the drive ran the software and started backing up. No sweat!

I had bad experience with WD drives in the past but I decided to give this one a try because the size and portability were a big plus. Well, after 6 months of regular home usage the drive just died. One morning it started clicking and ticking, and I lost more than 1TB of my music and photos collection.

This is my second passport. The first was a 1TB model and it performs brilliantly. I was so satisfied with the first that I bought the 2TB model and it worked just as well.

Extra storage space is a must with the size of digital files. The 1 TB My Passport Ultra Portable External hard drive is a great product. The USB 3.0 speeds up the down loads and access by software. The portable size and build add a convenience when used with my laptop.

Very durable and portable
Maymie Berge (verified owner) –
This is much faster than my old Passport drive and just as easy to setup and use. Great drive.

It is to back up my Sony A7ii digital camera photos

Great compact HDD with lots of storage. Got myself two of these in 4TB to replace my old 1TB, 2TB chunky powered HDDs. A hell lot more portable and simpler without all the extra cables and weight. Transfer speed quite good between 80-100MB/sec on average over USB 3.0 – small files still a lot slower though but this is the same for all HDD. Really like the metal look which I feel helps with passive cooling.

Started up without a hitch and works just fine with Windows 10. I haven’t tried any of the included software.

What more can I say 🙂
Verna Skiles (verified owner) –
Sufficiently fast and well constructed. It doesn’t feel cheap and flimsy. The storage capacity is great especially for the price. It’s just what I needed for storing photos and videos.

Awesome hard drive with traditional WD quality. Sharp silver look.
