For the money, this is a hard drive to beat. Reasonably fast and lots of storage.

I reformatted these as HFS+ which is required for Time Machine. I swap them weekly with a friend of mine so I always have one offsite. I appreciate the 3-year warranty.

It works fine, so far hasn’t lost any data.

I was worried it wouldn’t work for my new macbook since it runs on el capitan but I had no problem what so ever transferring information from my old laptop to my new one. Fast transfer speed, light weight, and compact.

Love em… Bought two, to archieve and back-up my rather large CD music collection (FLACK files). Great size, about the size of a cassette, or pack of cigarettes. So far, so good… Would definitely buy them again…

We used this drive to capture video from multiple tape formats. The drive was formatted properly out of the box and performed perfectly.

Have been using 2, WD 4TB My Passport as additional backups but they needed to be retired/stored. Replaced with 2, 5TB WD My Passport they are working perfect.

This is a great hard drive for backing up my photos. It’s not an SSD, but it’s still pretty fast, as it’s USB 3.2. I really like that fact it powers from the USB port and does not need external power. I can take it with me when I need to. Great little 2.5 drive.

The WD 4TB passport is a great option if you are looking for a external hard drive that is easy to use, fast and reliable. It works great on my HP computer and on my windows system. I mainly use it to back up photos and videos and some files. This is a great portable hard drive with tons of storage space. It allows me to save storage space on my other devices such as computer and phone. Would definitely recommend this product.

I have been purchasing WD external hard drives for over 6 years now, and they have been great so far. It is lightweight and a bit smaller than the previous WD external hard drive for Mac. Instead of having two cables, for USB and USB-C, there is only one cable and it has a USB to USB-C adapter. This saves space from having an extra cable. Captured in the photos attached.

So much quieter than other drives. No problems connecting to my Mac. Incredibly small. Excellent drive for me. Use it with Super Duper to back up.

Good, fast transfer. Love the size and portability of the drive. I work in college athletics and use it primarily for backing up photos and videos.

I got this my passport to backup some of my pictures and content & I love it. It’s compact and easy to use with devices! I love having a portable hard drive for easy access when I’m anywhere at any time! I highly recommend this my passport!

I haven’t usb 3.0 on my computer so I didn’t test it in high speed condition but I transfered a lot of data in one time and the transfert time wasn’t so bad. I appreciate the compact form, It’s really small for a 2TB! And it light too. I just regret that the wire isn’t integrate in the case like on some LaCie HDD (but the description on the product page is clear on this point 🙂 ).

My purpose for this was to function as a Time Machine on a new Macintosh. It is small, quiet, powered by the PC and stays out of the way. Does its job well. It includes its own software on it for some sort of purpose, but I didn’t even bother to look at it: why would I when I already have Time Machine? 🙂

I have like 5-6 of these WD 4TB drives for travel and they are really spectacular. I’ve tried several different drives but come back to these pretty regularly.

Works. Reformatted for a MAC. You can download the drive utilities for MAC if you want them on the WD site. I am just using it for Time Machine backups. Good price. Enjoying the red color as it helps me know which disk. Smaller than the last one I purchased and twice the capacity.

This external drive worked right out of the box on my new iMac. Just plugged it into the back of the computer with the cord supplied. Set up Time Machine. Very small and less obtrusive than my old iomega. No problems with it so far.
