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

All I wanted is an external SSD drive to connect to a PC with Win7 with drive utilities-- no backup/cloud/security/or unwanted apps and trial software, etc. If you are like me, then do not install the WD Discovery software-- it breaks through your firewall, sets up a scheduled tasks to update itself-- trys to install the bloatware... So, after deleting the wanted programs and leaving the drive utilities (which you can download from WD.com without the Discovery software), I am disappointed with the drive utilities too. They are not specific to SSD drives, but at least the drive is formatted with exFAT. Perhaps I am spoiled with the SAMSUNG SSD drive utilities. WD if you are watching-- Give us a choice of what to load when launching your Discovery software. And, tell us simply what privacy we are giving up to use it. (I should think for just the utilities-- there should not be any private content taken from users.)

I love this little SSD. Its probably the fastest external drive Ive ever had the pleasure of using, and it doesnt even get hot during use. Its small and lightweight, and plugs in to any USB-C port on any computer and works with no hassle. So far its been an absolute treat, and its smaller than a credit card!

Great little drive thats quick. Only problem is the USB-C cable that is now coming with the drive is about 8 long (seriously?!) where some of the previous ones I bought here had cables over 2 feet long. My drive literally cant reach my desk from the computer. Its dangling in the air. But I highly recommend the drive.

Works fine - fast - USB cord is very short - like 3 or so inches long

I got this unit to replace my old WD passport for my mac. It works great and was really fast. I got the 1TB and love the SSD on it. Its really compact for easy storage.

Much smaller in size than expected... and much much lighter .. works perfectly and super fast.. Have a look at the pic to see actual size.. about 3 inches tall and practically weightless, I think the included cable weighs more ;) Im definitely going to buy a couple more of these and back up all my data from my older hard disks before they die on me.

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.

Best drive ever, blazing speed on my MacBook Pro, I highly recommend it for timeMachine backups and restores Even while encrypted is light speed fast. A MUST have in my opinion. Ohh almost forgot, it is really small y light

Light and durable. Cheaper than Samsung T5, but the speed is a little slower too. One thing I dont like is that the cable given is too short compared to other brands.

This drive is small, fast and light and has enough space for what I do. Backing up files or doing large transfers are twice as fast as USB 3.0. This saves a lot of time and there are no moving parts!
