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

No complaints here. Been working great so far. I use it all the time to run certain software files off of, since my laptop HD isnt the largest. Heats up a tad after several hours, but thats about it.

Great product. Delivered promptly and exactly as advertised. I use it to hold all of my movies when I travel. It is blazingly fast on my MacBook Pro.

This solid state drive greatly increased the storage capacity of my laptop and allowed me to keep GIS projects stored on an external drive that was fast enough that geoprocessing operations did not bog down excessively.

I love this little beast, but sometimes it can be very frustrating to use. I use this drive with a 2015 MacBook Pro that usually works fine unless either (1) the computer dies with the hard drive still plgged in, or (2) the drive is not safely ejected. In either case, the drive is no longer recognized when I plug it in again and I need to run a disk repair using the Disk Utility app. Sometimes the repair fails and I need to either restart my computer or unplug/replug the drive several times for the repair to work. Thankfully, this does not happen often and none of my files are lost/corrupted. However I havent seen this behavior with other hard drives. Other than that it is a great product - super fast transfer speeds and it comes in an amazing size. Overall, Id still recommend this product.

I bought this ssd drive for being the “Startup” drive on my Mac computer. It works great! The computer speed has been raised and improved dramatically. Actually it is a “new” computer while using that external drive. By the way it is connected via the usb 3, it works much better then I expected.

Extremely lightweight and compact. I needed more memory for Photoshop and Liggtroom, the 2TB version was on sale for $299 and I couldnt pass it up. So far so good I partioned the drive (1.86TB available) for Storage, Camera Raw cache and a Photoshop Scratch Disk. Working like a charm so far. Appearently this is made by SanDisk which is where you register the product for the warranty. Its so light I can keep with my laptop at all times plugged in. Perfect for my needs and the price made it a no brainier.

Its a 1 TB SSD. It looks like the picture in the listing. It was the correct color. It supports USB3. The only thing I dont know is how long it will be in service.

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)

My first SSD drive, and though its more expensive than a standard drive, there is a big level of ease, knowing that there are no moving parts to crash and destroy the platter... and of course all of the data on it. Very happy to have it, after going through the agony of 2 hd crashes in the last 6 months, and nearly losing a ton of photography and writing. Very compact and well mad.

The first thing I noticed was that it was much smaller than I imagined. But it is fast and big enough for me to clear up my main boot SSD a bit. Everything is working perfectly so far, just an easy plug and play experience. My one gripe is how short the cable is that comes with it. For my desktop I would like it to be a bit longer, but for laptops it probably doesn’t matter.
