Description
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 do weekly full backups. This works like a charm. I don’t use the bundled software or services – but these may be very useful for other people!

I LIKE WD EXTERNAL DRIVE. IT IS COMPACT SIZE AND LOOKS VERY DELICATE. I AM LEARNING HOW TO USE IT. THANK YOU B&H
Dolly Grimes (verified owner) –
Very compact. I formatted the drive for HFS+ journaled for my Mac Air, then tested it using the Blackmagic Disk Speedtest software and I was getting approximately 100MB/s read and write speeds. Great for temporary onsite backup of my photos.
Lawson Lakin (verified owner) –
I would not recommend this product. Sadly lost all of my backups within a month of using the hard drive. Working with Western Digital is really hard & not an easy process. I have used this brand for years, & the last couple of years it just seems as though the quality has dropped. Would suggest a different hard drive.

There’s not much more to say, other than that it it hard to believe that so much hard disc storage can be be crammed into so small a package.
Easter Berge (verified owner) –
I use the hard drive to backup my photos and music. I’ve purchased Western Digital external hard drives for years and have never had any issues. I like the small size and the password protection.

Using as back up for hard drive. Works great. Quiet. Very small and out of the way. Only complaint is that USB 3.0 cord supplied was way too short. Will need to replace with longer one to connect to USB 3.0 connection in back of computer.

Easy to use…love B&H fast and easy

These don’t seem to work in secure mode with some macs and MacOS versions. Especially macs that manage sleep and reduce power while not being used. The volume cannot be accessed when the next backup is scheduled by the system.

WD drives have been very dependable for me. I have at least 5 currently, but as prices have dropped and drive sizes have grown over the years, the 2T drives are perfect for backing up 12+ years of photos and files. In addition to my TimeMachine Backup, I now own two WD soldiers 2T drives, duplicating my backup. One drive is kept at home, the other off site. I’m finally organized with backing up my important data thanks to these two 2T portable WD drives. My WD drives have provide for me peace of mind at a reasonable price with my important data and images.

This was a really easy way to plug in and back up my major drives. Great price, great customer service as always. This is my third or fourth my passport drive and I have loved every one. Small, easy to use, stays cool, packs a punch.

I use this product for my personal use and for data storage. Slim Design and attractive outlook made me to buy this product. Attractive offer from this site made me to buy this product without making me any second thought regarding this product.

Bought this to replace an older WD external desktop drive that the computer no longer would access. This one works properly, is much smaller, and does not need AC power source, receives power directly from USB. Nice assortment of colors.
Chester Balistreri (verified owner) –
is very good.
Anabel Gutkowski (verified owner) –
I use this product as external storage, mostly for photographs. What is great about it is the large amount of storage to store large files. I do not use the software included since most systems have an automatic backup system available.

Very solid, reliable, can’t complain =]

1.5TBs for 72.00 is awesome, its USB3 so its a fast transfer, its got an sturdy enclosure so its very sturdy, and most of all it a retail box and its from B&H, they wouldn’t sell it if it was not a good price or drive.
