This drive is equipped with 4TB of storage and a USB 3.0 Type-C interface.

Since WD designed this My Passport Ultra drive for Mac, it comes preformatted HFS+ for macOS Mojave, High Sierra, and Sierra.

This product was easy to use, offered quick data transfer and was impressively small in size for being a 1TB drive. We transferred a ton of video and photos prior to updating our computer from Window 7 to 10 and it provided peace of mind.

Useful and easily portable hard drive with sufficient storage and quick transfer rate. Only con is that the connector cord is a bit short for a desktop computer.

5TB’s! Needed a place to back my photos up too and this was perfect. The price was great! I like these small in size external hard drives. Lots of space in a compact size.

Great little product at reasonable price. Works just fine. This model has the C type connection which is faster. than standard usb.

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!

4 TB has never been made easier to use. Back up all my photos and PowerPoints in no time.

We use drives like these regularly to hand-off files to clients. They are cost effective, widely available, and work on both windows and Mac OS.It is essential to keep track of the included USB cable in order to connect the drive.

This portable hard drive is very versatile and portable. I’m using this drive to backup my documents . Originally I was using an external drive and a port for my backups, however, that’s extra wires and setup that I have to deal with. With the WD passport, I can easily just plug in and do what I need. The only issue is that it takes maybe 30 secs to a minute for the computer to recognize the drive. I also own an older version of the 1TB WD passport and that took way less time for the computer to recognize. This newer WD 1TB drive is also a bit slimmer compared to the older one.

I often use this drive when I edit video for storage of intermediate renders. This helps to keep enough free memory on my MBP SSD drive for use by running apps. The file read/write time is sufficiently fast not to hinder my workflow. I also take this drive with me when I travel as one of my back-up drives.

WD has never disappointed in the past and has come though again.

I have a windows computer at home and mac at school. I transfer all of my photos on windows interface and edit them on the mac. I had to ask an IT staff to reformat the drive so I could write to it on mac, he spent several hours on it and when he brought it to me he said Nightmare, never again. Other than that it serves the purpose of portable drive pretty well.
