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.

The only reason that I am giving this drive a four (4) star rating instead of a five (5), is that I have not had this drive long enough to know if it will make it the distance… Having siad that, it works great (note, I deleted all the contents of this drive when purchased, as I am using purely as a video drive (movies)).

It’s good as long as I don’t leave it plugged in too long. I use a PowerBook and I have to force eject it if left in for several hours.

The My Passport Ultra disk works great with my Macbook pro. The USB 3.0 connection is fast. There is plenty of room for my photos. I am semi-professional photographer and I shoot in RAW. Each of my Photoshop files reach up to 500mb. So this serves me for my ever growing needs.

small, portable, fast, reliable. What I especially like – the ability to make it secure right out of the box. Software gives you the ability to create password to the whole drive, so nobody else can get into it.

Often need to take a gigs of work related data with me when I travel (or work from the beach). My laptop has a small SSD. Passport drive provides me with the portable data solution I need. It is inexpensive, small, and transfers data quickly. It has a quality feel. Previous experience with WD drives has been good, hoping this one will prove to be as reliable.

Very nice price/quality relation. It works fast (not the fastest disk I’ve used though). Nice to feel metal on a hard drive you’ll drop 4TB of data. I would buy this again.

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.

I bought this to keep backups of my document, photo and music files in a safe location. I’ve used the 500 GB and 1 TB versions successfully, and this one works just as well.

It’s really good. Very easy to use this.

So far, so great (I’ve had it less than a year). I use it to automatically back-up everything on my desktop pc. It does just that, unobtrusively (it’s very compact and silent). Only the blinking light assures me it’s doing anything. It looks and feels rugged. I’m impressed that Western is confident enough in its product to include a three-year warranty (limited of course); not that I would ever test a hard-drive to its limits. At this price point, I will replace it within the next year. It’s USB-powered, another plus (I have more ports than ac plugs). I’m totally satisfied.

I love WD backup drives and have 5 of them but the new backup software is garbage. The Smartware that WD once used was spot on and easy to use but not so for the new WD Backup software. It is not intuitive and is difficult to understand. To top it off the software is extremely slow and makes me think that the software is not responding properly. When I call for support I am directed to India and have a difficult time understanding the individual. Although the tech is very nice I can tell that he is just as frustrated as I because I don’t understand him. Sorry to say that the backup software makes me want to turn to another product line.
