cheaply made. came apart
Really fragile. Had it a year and the seam split and it no longer is able to copy stuff. I never dropped it or treated it roughly at all . Seemed like a good deal but it's cheaply made. Be careful if you have important stuff on it

Excellent Backup
The item arrived within 2 days of ordering, and I could track its progress to make sure I was around to receive it. I firstly connected the drive to a USB extension lead so that I could keep it in front of the monitor.

Excellent HDD
Very compact and runs fast in USB 3.0 mode. I got around 95 Mbps while copying files from another USB 3.0 device. I got three of these and they seem to last pretty well so far.

Western Digital My Passport Pro: A hefty portable RAID
What's striking about Western Digital's My Passport Pro portable hard drive is its size and weight. The 4TB version I tested weighs 1.58 pounds, which is light when compared to your average five-pound clay brick.

My Passport Studio WDBAAE
Western Digital designed and preformats the My Passport Studio for use with Macs; however, it works well as a portable external storage solution for Windows and OS X, as long as USB 2.0 is your connection of choice.
Cons:
- The My Passport Studio doesn't support USB 3.0 and its FireWire performance could be faster
- Its backup software doesn't allow for much customization, and its cost per gigabyte is relatively high

Well-designed, capacious, and fast
The new My Passport Pro delivers in all most all categories for a portable storage device: It's capacious, fast, very convenient to use and quite affordable. While it's not the fastest and most compact drive I've seen, the combination of what it has to offer more than makes up for these minor...
Pros:
- The WD My Passport Pro is fast, portable, and has some of the largest storage capacity you can find
- It supports multiple RAID setups, has a well-designed built-in Thunderbolt cable, and is comparatively affordable
Cons:
- The drive doesn't support USB nor does it have an extra Thunderbolt port.

Very portable
Overall I'm very impressed with this product. It is very small so takes up hardly any space in my camera bag and transfer speeds are good. The bundled software isn't particularly good so I don't use it. The main issue I have with the product is that the casing scratches very easily.
Pros:
- Lightweight
Cons:
- Scratches Easily
