The Western Digital takes home an award by offering a capacious drive for surprisingly little cash
I use this drive to provide Time Machine backups for the 3 Macs in the house. Two of my Macs have USB2 ports, so these ports dominate the write speeds to the disk. Even though the TM backups took 20 or 30 min each, these were the first time backups which amounted to 60-90GB.
Silent, low power, reliable (so far); The small form factor and self-powered aspects are pluses as well
None; Update(2016/Jan): I used it a few times (maybe 4) and had it unplugged sitting on my desk; I used it just now for another Time Machine backup and it started to act weird; It would unmount spontaneously.
Each color of the new WD My Passport comes with a color matching USB cable. If you want to store a lot of data, and maybe even use colors to categorize your data, the new My Passport portable drive from WD is for you.
The new WD My Passport portable drive has lots of storage space, good performance and supports strong encryption; It's available in some vivid color options and comes in an eye-catching design
There's no USB-C (so no future-proofing) and the high-capacity versions of the drive are bulky
Along with the My Book update this week, WD has released a new version of the My Passport and My Passport for Mac, the company's popular portable storage solution. This re-release is highlighted by a new modern design that features a textured underside and is available in six distinct colors: Black,...
Same reliable hardware; Back up software works great and is seamless to use; Its new design is coupled with vibrant color options
Performance hasn't improved over the previous version
3 Years warranty, fast speed, high data recovery success rate.
WD - this is a good and reliable hard drive
wondering who had the idea to make such an ugly design maybe it's good; will not fall out from the hands; ;-
This hard Drive was easy to install an it works great with both My Mac at home and my PC at work. No hassle at all.
I always use "Passport" size external HDDs for backups and my old 2TB had not enough space anymore. This one has huge capacity for such a small box and will last for a few years. High recommendation.
Huge capacity for such a small box; USB 3.0 - fast transfers; Good deal when on sale
None
Small and quiet! Now i can backup all my data on this bad boy!
I got this product in a sale, for me its a very good product at this price. According to me below is the major pros and cons of this device Pros: i)As description says this drive has 256bit encryption so I believe this is protected from others. ii)Drive looks good and sturdy.
I bought this drive to transfer files from my old Windows XP Professional Computer to my new computer running on Windows 10. Since Win XP can only see drives up to 2 Tb, I bought this small 1 Tb drive to make sure the transfer would go without problems. Was I wrong !!!
