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.

Very affordable portable hard drive. Works great.

I bought this 5TB Passport Ultra to provide backups for my new MacBook Pro and for transferring some of my necessary information from my previous MacBook Pro to my new one. It’s very easy to use and did exactly what I needed it for.
Uriel Metz (verified owner) –
I get one of these for every project that needs a backup. They are fairly low in cost, fast enough to make some minor video editing changes, and small enough to carry around easily with my laptop.
Filomena Doyle (verified owner) –
Used as a backup device, didn’t install their software, just using Windows backup, works great.
Marcellus Rice (verified owner) –
Fast, fast, fast, reliable, enormously spacious, completely bus-powered, elegant, solid yet light, non-smudging aluminum housing, physically small (just a little bigger than a deck of cards), silent, and outstanding build quality compared to most drives in its class which are housed in plastic ? the perfect portable, external HDD for highly reliable backups or transport of large files at an eminently reasonable price.
Osvaldo Nolan (verified owner) –
Useful and easily portable hard drive with sufficient storage and quick transfer rate. Only con is that the connector cord is a bit short for a desktop computer.

I was looking for a portable hard disk to replace an existing 3 year old seagate model. The price was the cheapest i could find for a 1.5TB portable disk and i was amazed to see the slim profile. Its very easy to carry during travel. Had no issues plugging in and using it on my windows 8 laptop. USB 3.0 offers noticeable speed improvements.

simple, slim, and portable.

I use the hard drive for backup of my McBookAir. There is no problem with the disk but there is problem with TimeMacine which more often than not cannot crete directory for the backup. This is not the drive, this is the Apple OS.
Erik Maggio (verified owner) –
good deal, good drive & love the backup software.

I am a beginning photographer and needed extra storage to store RAW files. This portable hard drive was exactly what I needed and I got it at a great price. As a photographer, I am a life long customer of B&H!!

Excelent product; it fulfill my expectation.

The WD brand is very thick, almost seems like a hard disk from 2 years ago. Not convincing enough that this is a 2016 model. The Seagate and other competitive brands are much sleeker. I also have the Seagate 2 tb model which I love. i am not getting the comparable disk speed either when using it with my macbook 13 air, so I’d recommend NOT getting this brand. I didn’t want to go through the hassle of shipping back as a return and then order another one as I don’t plan on travelling with the WD disk, but unless WD comes up with a better model – I’m very disappointed with this purchase.

I couldn’t resist at $39 sale price. Perfect size drive for backing up a days video shoot.

My main purpose for this drive is backing up content to store it somewhere safe in case disaster strikes. For this the drive is ideal. The size is quite small (if I would have ever smoked I would possibly say the size of a cigarette box) and it offers 4T (well 3.6GB if you ask Windows) of storage space. When doing my backup I have seen a sustained write speed of 100MB/s which is for such a drive really nice. After copying 2T, the drive case got less warm then my notebook (according to my disc monitor it was reaching 41C – which is a tad warmer then my normal disc drive @38C). I of course not say anything about the long term durability yet, but I hope that by the time I know more about it you won’t be interested in it anymore. 😉
