Expand the storage on your Mac 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 Mac 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 Mac, it comes preformatted HFS+ for macOS Mojave, High Sierra, and Sierra. If you happen to work across both Windows and Mac platforms, WD provides a downloadable HFS+ driver for Windows 10, 8.1, and 7, which enables the reading and writing of this My Passport Ultra drive without any reformatting. Or, make it fully Windows compatible with a simple reformat. Thanks to a 256-bit AES hardware encryption chip, your private files are kept more secure.

I bought this 1.5 TB as an archive drive to store vacation photos, music and movies. The drive is priced at a very good value – essentially 1/2 terabyte free!Shipping was free, very fast and B&H packaged it with love which is super important for hard disc drives. Based on this pleasant B&H experience, I will always consider your store for all my relevant online purchases. Thanks B&H for caring!!!

I needed backup/restore with Mac time machine. That worked well with non-mac version of WD Passport, after automatic reformatting. The whole process takes long time due to mac’s security, while the result was good. No extra cables needed, power over USB-C.

My Passport Ultra 5TB portable drive arrived today. As soon as I began to transfer video files from my older My Passport 2TB that I have had for years to the new drive, the new drive began to click. AKA as the Click Of Death. I googled the problem and people have reported data loss from this faulty drive. The question is, with a drive that has a reputation of having issues, why is it still on the market. Does WD get a kick of people losing their valuable data?????

I used this 2TB hard drive for data transfer and storage, and it is very good. The 3.0 transfer rate is fast, more than twice as fast than when 2.0 storage devices are used. Connectors for cable fit tight. It’s also fast in retrieving stored data. I’m sure I will purchase another.

This is a good choice for local backups. Password protection and hardware encryption are nice features. Data transfer is fast, but not as fast as I would have expected on a USB 3.0 interface. The drive’s design is compact and it seems to be quite sturdy. I use my own backup software rather than the supplied WD SmartWare which I find awkward to use.

It’s small, portable, seems to be well built and I’ve never had a problem with it! This is my third one I’ve purchased this year! Reasonable price for that much storage as well. I love having tiny drives that don’t clutter up my desk!

Great price easy to setup and use. Apple users will need to reformat drive using Disk Utility.Citi Card users can initiate a Price Rewind and get $-$ back.

Great price and performance for portable drives. Robust too. Plays 4K footage like a breeze if you machine is up to snuff.

it showed up and when I plugged it into the USB it installed itself like it should but when I removed it and then plugged it back in, it would not find the drive. I ended up removing the software and it is working as a spare storage device

Best price for this WD product anywhere, but the quality of the WD has diminished. I have never had one go bad and yet 2 of the last 3 I have bought have had problems. WD problem, B&H Service & prices the absolute best!
