Expand the storage on your Windows system and back up photos, video, music, and documents using the silver 4TB My Passport Ultra USB 3.0 Type-C External Hard Drive from WD. This drive is equipped with 4TB 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.

WD products are excellent, they have a long track record of being one of the best hard drive storage solutions whether in a portable drive or an internal OS drive. This Passport Ultra with 3.0 USB is blazing fast, I have it working with my backup solution, NovaBACKUP and have the best for fast backups and safe storage in case of a catastrophic disaster of hard drive proportion – I am covered. B&H provided awesome service, super fast shipping and look forward to doing business again, and again with them.

I’ve been using WD My Passports for a long time. This one is up to their usual standard.

With external hard drives … I am always a little concerned … when might they crash? For this reason, I bought the 2 pack – 1 TB HD so that I have a backup external HD. So far the product stores my photos and works as advertised … but always have a backup plan when working with external HD’s

I primarily use this USB powered drive to move files from my cameras to drive while on the road. I also use it to save other files which I need while on the go. Its size is very compact and it has power on LED. It does not have ON/OFF switch I do not use built in back u software as I do my back up on my own site

Though I’ve one WD external hard drive that has gone bad ( it’s 8 years old). I’ve never had an issue with WD. They’ve been very stable. I’m not expecting an issue with this one. The sale price is great ..!!!

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.

Great little hard drive. Cheap… But I bought it to store movies on both my WD Media Player and Iomega Media Player. Neither one of them recognized it. So, unless you’re using for a specific USB 2.0 connection, note it isn’t compatible with everything. Otherwise, it’s a good drive ….

Bought 2 of these hard drives. One of them crashed the first day I tried to use it. The other one is still working but I won’t trust it with important files. Unfortunately, I am past the return period so I guess I am stuck with them.

Seems like a solid, durable portable drive. The red is a great way to not lose it in the sea of black electronics I have

USB 3.0 makes it fast, it is very quiet, and it does not require an external power source. Add to it Western Digital reliability in a compact package and I don’t see how it could get much better. I use it to hold images and music files before archiving them. The included software even monitors the temperature of the drive for safe operation. Five stars!
