Description
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.

This product is used primarily for backing up my computer. The software provide with the unit makes this easy and complete. Plus there are additional applications provided that I found quite useful. I discarded my previous back-up software in lieu of the one provided with this device. The unit is compact and sleek.

This was a really easy way to plug in and back up my major drives. Great price, great customer service as always. This is my third or fourth my passport drive and I have loved every one. Small, easy to use, stays cool, packs a punch.

Very convenient, large capacity, very fast. Over the past 4 years I have owned 6 My Passport devices. I have experienced 2 failures: one in which accessing the disk became unreliable and one in which the USB connection failed. B&H replaced the second which was only 3 months old. Don’t let this device be your only backup of critical files.

I have had WD & Seagate HDs for 15 years. I prefer WD. I had some of my 8-10 year old WD 2TB Hardrives die on me this year, so I bought this to replace them. So far, the speed is faster than my other ones. The USB-C is nice. I have only had it two weeks, so we’ll see if they last 10 years like some of my other HDs.

Use it to back up my files. It’s easy to use, fast, reliable, portable and quite rugged. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. I already have several My Passport portable hard drives and I continue to buy the same because I have confidence in their performance. Not so great: a little too pushy about extra services/tasks

Love it. put all my pictures on it and use it back and forth on all my computers.

Works good just like all my other WD products.

I have four of these and use them mostly for running continuous backups of the computers in the house. The software that comes with them works well and gets the job done. Also, when I travel, I’ll transfer all of my raw images onto one of these drives as a backup to what is on my notebook so I have two copies to bring home.

It does what it claims (holds data). The encryption software is easy to use. Seems like a good value.

I’ve gotten so many hard drives over the years being a filmmaker. This is by far my favorite. It is fast and has a lot of room for video files. I can edit directly off this drive and it doesn’t seem to be slow at all. Very happy with this one.

The included USB-C cable is total garbage. It doesn’t fit flush with the Mac and, if you bump it the tiniest bit, the drive will disconnect from the computer. On the HD side, there is so much play in the USB-C connector that it’s amazing it can even (occasionally) communicate with the computer. It took multiple connection attempts to even get the drive to mount. I’m sending this back for a refund!

It works as you’d expect from a plug in storage: Plug into USB port (no additional power needed), ready to use! The only thing I did not expect was the thickness of the case. 3 years ago I bought a 1TB drive from WD and that case was about 4mm thinner then this one. I would have thought that both drives contain roughly the same amount of HDD’s and as such the case would have the same dimensions (or thinner). But hey – it’s 2TB and still fairly small!

I like this drive a lot…That said after buying two this month for my new MacBook Pro 2018, 13, the connection cable doesnt seem tight. If I so much as type and the Mac even barely moves, and I mean barely, the connection becomes loose and I get an error message…Its all new…I think the connection should be secure. I will call B & H after the holiday.

I bought my first passport ultra several years ago,and I never had a single problem with them.

This is third My Pssport Ultra portable HD purchased over the last 3 years. I use them to back up internal hard drives on both MacBook pro and PC computers. Reliable, quiet, speed as advertised, and easy to plug and play with integrated software to set up for automatic backup or other operations. I do not have experience with other brands or models from which to compare, but so far, I have had no need to consider any others! If you compare price to quality and reliability, this has been consistently the best value.
