These were on sale for $109, so bought a few Black 5TB drives and I already had a Red 4TB one, so I figured I’d never need to buy storage again. I was wrong. In the last month I’ve had a red 4TB drive and a black 5TB drive BOTH go bad. Useless bricks. I’m going to unload because I just don’t trust them anymore. Don’t buy these. They brick out half the time, or at least 2 of my 4 did.

I’ve used lots of external hard drives and have never had a problem with Western Digital. 5TB is an enormous amount of space. Drives that big used to require their own power cords, which I never liked, but this once plugs right into the computer’s USB port. I work with large photo files that eat up a lot of disk space, but 5TB should be enough for a while. For the price, it’s a pretty unbelievable value.

I really like the My Passport portable storage. I was able to back up all important docs on my computer and get all of my wedding photos on it so I know I will have them forever no matter what happens to my laptop. It was super easy to use and is high quality. The value is priceless knowing I have all my important pictures and docs in one safe place.

I have been buying WD Passports over the years for storage needs. Not one failure yet. Well built and priced right.

Used for backup for iMac using OSX 10.9. Quick install. Placed Passport on aluminum stand, which appears to act as a heat sink. Runs cool and quiet. So far so good!

I use the product as the external hard drive for my iMac’s Time Machine. It runs quiet, is slim and is nonintrusive on the desk top. Got an excellent price and service from B&H.

I bought this item to backup all my photos and videos while travelling. After each day photo session, I transfer photos and videos from my SDHC card to my MacBook Air. I discard bad shots and do some adjustments for the good ones and store them in Aperture. After that first clean up, I export the working copies to My Passport (original size).That way I keep all the time 3 versions: originals on SDHC cards, good ones after the first sort on MacBook Air (in Aperture) and exported copies on My Passport.I keep My Passport with me all the time. If my laptop is stolen, I’m safe.

Works great. I reformatted it so it operate as just a storage drive on my Macbook Air.

I have been using WD portable USB connected drives for many years. This speedy and reliable drive is excellent for moving high numbers digital photos (@ 24Mb to 28 Mb each) around.

I needed some extra storage for my game system to store more games on and run games from it . The feel and look of the hard drive is slick and feels solidly built . I’ve ran multiple games on it and the hard drive speed is great and does not lag and runs normally . This is a great solution to extend storage or your device or archive data .

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…

My first Passport has lasted 5 years! Still going. but reviews say its average life span is about 4. So, I purchased this one. All my storage drives are WD. The best.

The WD 2TB external hard drive I purchased was exactly what I wanted. Works great right out of the box, and in perfect condition. The online order process was smooth and hassle-free, and the shipping was quick and accurate. Absolutely no complaints. I will definitely be shopping at B&H Photo-Video-Pro Audio again in the near future.

WD Passport portable drive that provides plenty of space for file backups. Longer warranty than the Elements series.

Super easy to use, just plug it in and you’re ready to go. With 4 TB of storage, I was able to fit my laptop backup and all my photos with plenty of room to spare. My only complaint would be the cable is a bit short, I’ve accidentally unplugged the hard drive when moving my laptop by accident.

Works great, as expected, slightly louder than the 640Gb drive it replaced, minor really, but not quieter
