    We were required to buy this for school and I am glad that we did! I have a lot of videos and stuff on my laptop because I study film and video production. It is soooooo annoying running out of space all the time on my macbook. Now I just edit off of my hard drive and my life has become a lot less stressful. Also it convienent carry this small guy to class to work off of those computer versus carrying my macbook everywhere with me. I have yet to run out of space so this is just perfect for me. The only complaint that I have is that I had to format mine before it would work on my macbook pro. There are instructions online if anyone else is having this problem. It youre reading this the first thing i recommend you do when you get this product is make sure that it is compatible and will work with all the computers you plan on using. That way you wont put material on here only to later on find out you will have to format it. (Erasing all of your content). This happened to me.. I had content added from our Macs at school and later came home to try and edit on my Macbook and it wouldnt work. So my things got erased. No worries I had my content backed up else where. Just a forewarning though. Also make sure you have your things are backed up.

    I have this WD 2TB Black hooked up to an XBox One, and have transferred all of my games to it from the Ones internal storage. I have noticed ZERO slowdown in the speed at which games load and play. If anything, it may be a bit faster... but that could be the placebo effect talking. The only complaint I have is that it has a blue light that blinks constantly, even when the One is in rest mode. I dont know if that means the One is accessing it every so often (maybe the One is a restless sleeper?) or if that is some characteristic of the drive itself. Either way, if it really annoyed me, I probably would have turned it sideways or put a piece of electrical tape over the light by now. Installed in December and have had no issues so far. Solid product.

    Fairly pleasant with this external hard drive! I brought the 1TB Black version. I was in need of more space and this makes my life much easier. A very huge plus for this drive was that it was super easy to set up. In 5 minutes of connecting, I could already load up storage into the drive and put it in use! Also, the WD software that comes with this drive instillation is also very useful. Scanning for my drive for errors is very helpful so kudos to WD for making a software like this! The one thing that I didnt like was that sometimes when I want to safely remove the hard drive, it would say it would be in use and cannot be removed. Everything would be closed yet this error would still pop up. Because of this reason, I had to give this drive 4 stars instead of 5. I actually dont mind this error because I can simply just shut off my laptop and remove it, but it can sometimes be annoying. TLDR; PROS: Easy to set up, great WD software to protect and backup your drive. Highly recommended. CONS: Sometimes cannot safely remove hard drive, have to shut down laptop in order to.

    Works as advertised and expected. Perfect for what I need to store and backup all my movies, music, documents, pictures.... Love how compact it is...it can easily fit in my pocket and weighs only 0.4 LBS. It comes with 18 USB 2.0/3.0 compatible data cable and works flawlessly right out of box, no driver, no software, no special setup required to run. This hard drive is USB powered from your PC or devices connected to so there is no AC cord/adapter required. Also I like its 3 year warranty, much longer warranty than 1 year warranty I typically get for other similar products. It works great with all of my devices I did tested with...Xbox, Windows 10, Windows 7, Windows XP, Macbook. It wont work on smart phones nor tablets. This is not a solid state drive (SSD) if you are looking for one. It also comes with the software to password protect and auto backup your files on this external hard drive. There is a protective case you can buy to protect this device but it is not included with the purchase.

    I am extremely disappointed in this purchase. I purchased this less than two months ago to replace another Western Digital external hard drive for Mac, and I am already having the same issue with no resolution. Initially the hard drive worked fine, but after 4-5 weeks it suddenly became very temperamental; claiming that the device was disconnected when I would shift position of the cord slightly. After a week or two of that, it was no longer recognizable, yet the light was on and it appeared to make noise as if it were on. My computer recognizes it is plugged in, but I am unable to access it. I have spent many hours trying to find a solution through the website and other sources with no solution. I work in two fields where we constantly need to be using external hard drives, and this is unacceptable. I am legally obligated to securely store data for three to five years for my job in academia. I have lost money in my photography job, as I am unable to access photos that I need to get to clients in a timely manner, not to mention the few dollars I spent to buy a third cord to make sure it wasnt a wiring issue. I have spent countless hours reprocessing photos that I had finished before because I keep my raw images on another disk. I gave this product two stars because it does have a three year warranty and I was able to spend an additional $10 for insurance in case I have to pay someone to retrieve the data from the disk. Unfortunately, I do not trust this brand any longer and I will not be using the warranty just so I can switch brands. Additionally, the company contacted me after I had complained about these issues via Twitter. Despite me sending them my personal information so they could resolve the issue, I have yet to receive a phone call or email from them.

    So far so good! I got up to a max speed of 108mb/s transferring from a Seagate 6tb to this little drive. My other barracuda Sata 7200rpm drives gave me about 30mb/s, same for USB2.0 WD-MyBooks; while transferring large videos to this drive. Been hooking this device up to my mx2-gbox & using Kodi to view all the files, music & videos on the passport, Videos played in Kodi have been playing smoothly and seeking doesnt cause any hiccups; it gets power from the mx2 usb port, which is great, this way i dont need to leave my PC on all night to stream from. This has to be saving me tons of money in electric, with the PC off all night. Ive only had this little gem for about a week but, Im feeling good about it. I bought a nifty little case for it that protects it very well, Id recommend it.

    My main purpose for purchasing this product was to obtain a portable back up device for my basic data files as well as my extensive collection of art images I create by editing my landscape photographs. I also wanted a USB 3.0 device to expedite the transfer of files. This product has met all of my expectations in that regard. It is compact and very nicely styled. Its large capacity has allowed me to backup all of my basic data files as well as my hundreds of HD photographs and the art images I have created from them. When I am editing the photographs, I use the files that are on this product as my base images and create multiple art images from the photographs. The USB 3.0 file transfer speeds are super fast and have significantly reduced the time it takes to edit my images compared to my previous USB 2.0 device. I am totally satisfied with this product and would recommend it to my family and friends.

    I bought this external 1TB HDD (Hard Drive Disk) on 2016 for having a backup of every type of file in my laptop and smartphone, everything from photos, videos, movies, music, documents, basically everything. Its 2018 and I still use it, although almost full, I carry this everywhere, and it still hasnt given any indications of giving up. Although there are things like Google Drive and Dropbox, I also keep a physical copy of everything in the cloud and in this HDD, so if anything were to fail, I would not lose anything at all. In all, Im very pleased with the performance of this HDD, and I truly recommend the brand to everyone.

    In August 2016 I replaced an older WD Passport that I had used for several years with this one. While my older Passport was still operating well, I was concerned about its age and decided a new one would provide more protection against possible storage failures. Unfortunately the new Passport began operating erratically one day in January 2017 and then failed completely - not allowing me access to my files. I have no idea why it failed. - and neither does the computer service specialist that I had look at it. I have enough faith in WD that I am purchasing a new Passport (my fourth) today. I just hope it lasts longer than my last one.

WD brings you the My Passport Ultra in a sleek and powerful device. 1TB of storage in a portable hard drive with the option to use cloud backup with Dropbox. Fast and easy connectivity using USB 3.0. Formatted NTFS for Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 operating systems. Requires reformatting for Mac OS. Compatibility may vary depending on user"s hardware configuration and operating systems. Portable Drive cases are available and sold separately. Compatible with: Mac
