WD 2TB Black-Gray My Passport Ultra Portable External Hard Drive - USB 3.0 - WDBFKT0020BGY-WESN

I bought this after my Seagate quit working. Hands down, the WD is clearly superior in every way. Cheaper, faster and most of all, very easy to use and understand. Super quite and compact. Able to be transported only if really needed to be, but I bought the Lacdo EVA shockproof carrying case. That is a must have with this external Hard Drive. I love it.

Works like the other WD drives I have. It has all that extra software on it, but you dont have to use it if you dont want to. It also has a proprietary connector on its cable. Not sure Im loving that--what if something happens to that wire? Anyway, Ive had great luck with this brand in the past and Im expecting the same here; I would recommend this product.

For the money it has a lot of storage and is not as big as some older drives for the same amount of memory. It is a quite drive and I use is to store videos from cameras.

Plugged it in and it works. Just to be sure, I ran various formatting and disk check tests to exercise the disk until I had 100 hrs on it, to weed out any early problems (infant mortality, its called in the reliability biz). I like the three-year warranty, but didnt want to commit my data until I felt confident in the drive. Im doing some extended travel and Im hauling this drive around with me as a back-up, and to hold my music and photo libraries that are too large for my laptop. This is my second My Passport from WD. It appears to be identical to the previous WD 2TB drive, except for the styling of the case. I dont like the sharp corners of this drive; the earlier version had more rounded corners. A minor point, but I will be packing and unpacking this drive (and the earlier one, as Im carrying both) pretty often, and the rounded corners are easier to handle. As compensation I got an Amazon Basics Hard Carrying Case. Provides some protection, and prevents things from snagging on the corners.

I bought this for my PlayStation 4 and I couldnt be happier. Its small and has a slick stylish design that works well. Its pretty straight forward as far as setting up and only takes a minute. Just plug in and follow the simple steps. I highly recommend for use with PlayStation and will be buying another.

I use this as an external HDD to store and work on my raw files with Lightroom in a MacBook Pro 2018. I had to buy a USB-C adapter. So far it works very well, speed its not an issue. I was a little upset when I discover SSD because I didnt bought the last available technology for storage, but for my needs I have the good performance and a save some dollars.

Bought it at $69.99 and has worked great for me so far. Has good download/upload speeds and seems like its built well. I have not had any corruption issues with it and hopefully wont because its being used to store backups.

Received this item on time and in excellent condition, thanks to the way the manufacturer packaged it. Use it for my primary backup for new Dell XPS-8910 tower computer using Windows 10 Home edition. It is located on top of the pc and connects to one of the USB 3.0 ports on the front of the pc through about a 10 inch long USB cable that comes with the unit. Installation, settings/user preferences, and online registration of the unit was flawless, quick and easy. I have it set to perform a backup of my C: drive every hour, and it does the job in a timely manner on the hour. I have run all the diagnostic tests that the device is equipped with, and all have passed. The extended test that checks the entire 2TB drive took a little over 6 hours to check. I have not had to test the actual backup function yet. I also have an earlier model of this drive on a different, older computer since 2014, and it has served me well so far.

After searching and reviewing different external hard drives for a few weeks, I ended up purchasing this one from WD and I’m glad I did. It performs great with my MacBook Pro and the transferring speeds are very quick as well as the added storage capabilities.

This was purchased to extend my storage on my Xbox One I already have one on my PS4 so I know they work on both. Just look up on google how to properly format the drive. It is very simple.
