WD 256GB My Passport SSD External Portable Drive, USB 3.1, Up to 540 MB/s - WDBKVX2560PSL-WESN

lightweight SSD but connection with cable is wobbly and does not give a solid secure feel. with limited usage so far, cant tell whether the connection will hold up if cable is removed many times. had a battery pack which had similar connection looseness which failed after about 6 months. this SSD is pricey, so hoping that it will not have the same problem since it will be after 30 days return period.

The external drive works great so far no complaints. The price was a little high, but that is common place for a SSD drive compared to a HDD. I like the compact size, it doesnt take up much space when I use it my for my desktop or laptop.

I have many WD external drives and have had no issues so when I saw the external SSD I had to try it. So far this has been great - it is small, light weight and fast!

I was tired of the environment taking forever to load while playing PUBG on Xbox 1. I bought this and it’s greatly improved. Granted, this will not fix connectivity issues, but if you have a good connection speed and still have spotty loading of PUBG this may fix your problem.

Draws a lot of power compared to others

I used this device to record video on my Arlo camera system. It formatted quickly and it was recognized by the system immediately. Not much else to say other than it is somewhat stylish looking and fairly small. I would buy again!

Its perfect for storing data.

Transferred 200+ gigs of photos in a matter of minutes, haven’t had any issues with it besides it didn’t come with the activation/serial code for the software registration (not a big deal)

I love that the SSD has a password feature. It runs games smoothly and cuts down load times significantly. Obviously as you add files it will slow down games if you use it to game. Amazing Product.

I had purchased a device like this (My Passport SSD External Portable Hardrive) over a year ago like this and it has worked beautifully with my MAC. This one and another with less storage did not convert properly and I spent hours trying to have them work. I contacted Amazon and returned both. It was noted on my account, that it was returned and my credit card credited for the full amount. It’s been over a month since the credit should have been on my account. I have not received a credit on my account and there is no easy way to communicate with someone from Amazon. I have been a prime member for MANY YEARS! Go to the contact page for a phone number and “oops, something went wrong” comes up. You must be kidding! After all the $$ Amazon has raked in during the pandemic and all the people unemployed, yet there is no one in customer service to speak with or chat with on line. It should not be this hard. Extremely disappointed in the product and more disappointed in Amazon.
