Same WD quality in a slimmer design.

I was in a crunch & this was the only drive big enough at Best Buy that I could buy. Worst mistake ever. Bought the drive during the day, transferred everything, that night it started slowing down with the transfer rate, then the next night it bricked. This is supposedly a very common thing with these cheap drives. Many who don’t complain say they have more than 2 more to back up on. Which seems ludacris to me. I would rather spend a lot on a very reliable SSD, instead of buying 4 or more of the same cheap drive that is gonna brick over time. Don’t make my mistake if you’re a videographer working with 4k quality and up files.

Truly plug-n-play, software performed backup automatically – done!

Simple startup: Already formatted for Mac. Ready to go once connected. Actually it would have been helpful if the interface made that clear. Four stars rather than five for that reason and because it’s too early to know how it will perform in the long run.

Fast, reliable transfer. I use it as Time Machine for two of my Macs.

Love The Western Digital Drives. I keep a small fan on all my drives and also regularly dust free air conditioned area. the cleaner the better, Drives by western Digital are Sealed to prevent dust from getting in. Superior construction. Nice equipment.

I bought this in order to have a reliable, compact backup for my MacBook Pro Retina, which only has a 256g flash drive. That’s not enough but will have to do. I’m not spending the extra for 512 or larger, so I’ll learn to stop saving so many files. Or I’ll simply store them here on the 1TB drive. I may also investigate backing it up on the cloud, but I’ve had difficulties with internet connections and speed. I’d rather have my files at hand and back up files in the cloud.

I got the item (2) two days before scheduled delivery. the item looks great. Have not gotten a chance to use it as yet. Hopefully everything works fine. Keep up the good work.

A great little hard drive. It comes with two cables for the different USB ports, which is a plus. It comes formatted in Mac OS Extended, which, while making it Mac specific, makes it easy to partition. I partitioned mine to use 1/4 of the space as a Time Machine, with the rest for file storage.

Great portable & fast 3.0 USB Hard Drive. I use it for backing up my computer internal drive and also for storing video when editing via FCP X. No complains!
Merritt Kub (verified owner) –
A solid external drive at a fair price.
Deondre Rempel (verified owner) –
Very compact external drive much smaller than my other drives and started working out of the box on my iMac running Big Sur. No formatting was necessary and not having to plug in a power cord is an asset.

This is my third Passport Drive; so far they have all worked flawlessly. And B&H has once again been a pleasure to deal with.
Virginie Schmidt (verified owner) –
I needed to dump a lot of video and pictures off of my laptop. This gave me a good value for the price. I did price checking and B&H was the cheapest even with shipping. I had a little bit of trouble with the password. That was a bit frustrating and it also dumps a lot of icons and software on your machine. It was worth the money though.

I purchased this on December 15 to later to return but my folders keep on disappearing and i have to plug it back in. Change setting on my mac so nothing sleeps, changed cords installed Imac Big Sur, same issue. If I could return it I would. Terrible

Plug and play ,rock and roll!
Althea Hane (verified owner) –
Easy installation. Perfect for what I needed it for – to back up all professional pictures I take and keep them separate from my personal files. I like the small size, especially compared to my other 500 gb WD external hard drive that I have had for several years.
