I use this drive for my iMac Time Machine backups. I have 2 and use the 2nd one to keep off premises. It is very small and quiet when in use. Being so small I can take it with me easily; like when I went to Austria last summer. My one complaint is that the cable is very short; not long enough to reach the floor. For the one I keep connected all the time I got a longer cable so I don’t have to keep it on my desk. I can’t speak to the software. I erased it and formatted it for my iMac, having no interest in the software.

Bought this 3TB drive based on my long hsitory of favorable experience with WD portable drives. Performs (to date) in full accordance with its specs and offers easy to use group of apps for backup and security. Use it primarily for offsite storage backup of critical files and images. Everything I expect in a portable hard drive.

I’ve had it for only a little while now a month to be specific.. It’s been shipped across the country from shoot to shoot. Nice backup/work drive so far, who knows what might happen in the future..

I have used WD externals drives for 8 or 9 years now. I have 3 My Books of varying sizes. The My Books were a little inconvenient since they have to be plugged into a wall socket to work. This Passport solves that problem completely. Very compact. Just plugs in to the USB port on my laptop & that’s it! Very portable; easy to take from room to room or on location. plugged into laptop. I had to reformat mine for Mac & Windows exFAT. There were very easy-to-follow instructions on WD’s website. Bought 2 more Passports in bigger 2TB size. Love that they come in colors for quick identification when backing up multiple copies of images.

I’ve standardized on using these for my video projects as either the primary project drive or as a secure project backup drive. In the 5+ years since I’ve standardized on these, I’ve yet to have one fail on me. You just have to remember that they are still mechanical drives with moving parts so I do treat them carefully. When I travel, they get put in their own portable drive carry case along with some desiccant, just as some extra insurance against damage.
Alison Bailey (verified owner) –
Easy to set up. Transfered all my pictures easily. Using as my external hard drive just for my pictures.
Britney Marks (verified owner) –
Use the system for backing up extensive photo files. Loads RAW and TIFF files reasonably quickly with USB 3.0. Good auto-backup utility and useful system security capability. Very reliable storage.

Bought several of these to use for Time Machine back ups for laptops when out of office.
