As an IT Customer Support expert, this is the only portable HD I recommend to my clients. I’ve personally used 3 for work, and countless customers have purchased these with no complaints in over 2 years. They all continue to work flawlessly. This is my 4th, and I expect that it will outlast both of my current computers. The speed and reliability are unmatched, and it looks great too! Very compact, sleek design, quiet. Everyone needs at least one of these to have peace of mind that their data is backed up safely. Western Digital makes data backup worry-free.

This portable hard drive is very versatile and portable. I’m using this drive to backup my documents . Originally I was using an external drive and a port for my backups, however, that’s extra wires and setup that I have to deal with. With the WD passport, I can easily just plug in and do what I need. The only issue is that it takes maybe 30 secs to a minute for the computer to recognize the drive. I also own an older version of the 1TB WD passport and that took way less time for the computer to recognize. This newer WD 1TB drive is also a bit slimmer compared to the older one.

Only a 4 because I haven’t used it extensively yet, but wow, very impressed with the size and convenience, and obviously that it has SO much space! Purchased to back up all my photographs, holds my extensive collection with space to spare.

I use a mid 2020 MacBook Pro 16″ top specs for video editing. DaVinci Resolve and BMPCC4K. I’ve been editing from this WD external HD and my 4K run really smoothly for my surprise. I exported a multi cam 42 min long video with graphics, color graded, adjustment layers in around 12 minutes. No issues ejecting the drive so I’m very happy with it!

Performed as expected. Used this on a family vacation. I bought a chromebook and used it to transfer my pictures and videos to this drive. Worked flawlessly. It is my second Ultra, and any future drive needs will consider WD Ultra again.

I teach a digital photography class, usually 16 students or so. Part of their course fee purchases an external hard drive for archiving photos and as a base location for image storage for Adobe Lightroom. I’ve used the Passport brand hard drives and they have always been reliable and durable.

USB 3 performance is great. USB powered is convenient and better than ac power. Footprint is good space saver for desk and travel, little larger than deck of playing cards. As years go by tech basics hopefully gets better and less expensive. Some stuff become obsolete, some are still necessity. This 2TB was destination transfer and back-up of older smaller external drives. Consolidation: although I wouldn’t recommend putting everything CRITICALLY IMPORTANT onto one large electronic/ mechanical drive, but personal prudence should be in effect. Selected most important files and transferred those onto Solid State flash drive. SSD are currently the safest electronic medium but large capacity are very expensive at the moment.

First explain the headline – Great Little – as in physical size – (but not – as in 1TB of storage). Small form makes it easy to carry, single cable for data & power makes it convenient to use. Using it to replace old, bulky & slow drive for our 150,000 music files we ripped from our collection of albums, tapes and CDs. Only thing not great was me only ordering the 1TB instead of the 2TB drive…

First thing I did was format it, now just using for photography back up, so I don’t overload my computers hard drive. Now, while working on my photos in Lightroom, I work directly off this external hard drive instead of the computers hard drive. Works without any issues.

This is an easy and economical way to back up any hard drive. Easy set up and operation. Definately a good choice for easy backups.

This drive is a major step up from a junky old 250 GB drive I have relied on for years. It is quick to transfer files and has thus far proved to be very reliable! A hard drive really proves itself over time, and one should really back up to multiple sources to ensure their data is safe, but this makes a great compliment to another hard drive or cloud data storage because of its great price. A++!
