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.

Not all external hard drives are compatible with the DVR+. Easy to set up, lots of storage capacity for movies and TV shows.

You can rarely go wrong with a Western Digital. I have had alot of success with the 1TBs and I am sure that this 1.5TB will be just as good!

I love the Passport Utra models. Compact and fast for data back-up.

I am using it to back up my photo collection and website and reduce the storage on my startup SSD. I use a Mac and needed to reformat the drive to accommodate the operating system. This was simply done with the disk utility app. The usb cable is short but this is not an issue since I remove the drive from the desk after backing up and put it in a drawer.

I am a photographer with a rapidly growing collection of images that need to be well protected for future availibility. I have had a WD 1TB external drive for about 3 years, and it has been a silent, dependable workhorse at storing my photo data files, but beginning to fill up. Recently bought a much more robust computer to better handle Photoshop processing (i7 processor, 16Gb fast RAM, and a big fat 500 Gb SSD C-drive for extreme file management speed and processing), and I decided to boost my storage capacity. I purchased the pair of WD passport externals, 2 TB each, and set them up for double redundancy. Simple to install, plug ’em in, set up the folders you want backed up, and your done – 10 minutes tops. Very fast, plug into a pair of SS USB 3.0, great price for the pair, and best of all, peace of mind on a large collection of important image data. What’s not to like ??? B&H is the best in the business

I use this drive for backing up my important data and moving large files between computers. I like that the drive gets its power directly from the USB port and doesn’t need a power pack.

I have 9 external drives and 3 are WD Passport. I use this one for backup and I take home with me and use it with my laptop to edit photos and send off orders to my lab.

Works great. Large capacity at a great price. Purchased to replace a crashed drive that was mostly backed up…I am thinking of getting another to insure ongoing, simultaneous backup.

I’ve been using these WD passport drives for years without issue. They’re fast and reliable. I use them in pairs as temporary backup drives to work from with full backup on a NAS. Great little drives, WD has these much improved aesthetically and overall performance wise over the years

There’s not much more to say, other than that it it hard to believe that so much hard disc storage can be be crammed into so small a package.
