500Gb Usb Stick

I have been using WD Passport drive since they started at 500gb and the newest is now 5TB in the Ultra line. The unit comes with one cable USB-C, but they use a nice little adapter for USB-A that plugs one. The drive is fast for a unit that has no power supply. There is WS Security software that will encrypt all your files and keep everything safe. I have not had one of these go back unlike Seagate which is why I keep buying WD. Get a little padded case cheap on Amazon and you can take this drive with you anywhere. Great drive, get one you won't be sorry.

I bought My Passport Essential 500GB Portable Hard Drive by Western Digital for extra data storage and I am extremely happy with its performance. Small, sleek, fast (USB 3.0), and USB powered (no uneccessary tangle of cables) I would highly recommend this HD to others looking to expand their data storage capacity!

For several years I have been using the small Samsung USB-C external drives (almost credit-card sized) -- I used two 500GB and one 1TB drives along with Carbon Copy Cloner and my MacBook Air. That worked well (although the 1TB became corrupted and unusable about 3 months ago) and I would especially back up the drive before any flight and separate the drive from my laptop at TSA. I just upgraded to a (wonderful!) MacBook Pro 14 and attempted a Migration Assistant transfer from the Air using a fresh Samsung backup. I let it run for about 8 hours and it never got past the first Looking for applications and documents... stage. To cut to the chase: I thus ordered this 500GB LaCie drive and did a fresh CCC backup from the MB Air. It took 7 minutes to backup 400GB of data! Using the Samsung with USB-C it would take 13 mins for ~22GB. (See screenshot of CCC logs.) I hooked the LaCie up to the MB Pro and started Migration Assistant. The whole process took ~15 minutes. Previously it would take hours. Sorry for rambling on. TLDR; A wicked fast external drive worth every penny. And Thunderbolt makes a huge difference!

The WD 500GB SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C Portable is great. I use it as the first stop in processing photos. Being small and light it is easy to pack and take on trips where I use it with a laptop. Back at the desktop I can plug it in and finish working on the photos and copy them to permanent storage. The file format that it came with was ExFat which means there is no problem with my connecting it to either my Mac or Windows PC. I use it on the Mac but having that flexibility will come in handy when I need it.

I bought this with WD 500GB WD_Black SN770 NVMe M.2 SSD and they work well together. My intended use was to use this as SSD boot for my Raspberry Pi 4 and it's a game changer. I wish it also comes with USB-C to USB-A as well, but It is still a great product for the price.

Great product if you need to connect a USB stick or disk to your phone.

. . . To transfer files by a usb stick from my Windows PC to my new iPad Pro.

Replaced 500Gb HDD with this SSD very impressive.

I love this memory stick. Very small with large capacity. It is on my key ring, so it is always with me. I can transfer files from one laptop to another when in a meeting, show pictures on any TV. It's a great backup when there isn't a good internet connection. Also, it has both a USB A and USB C connections.

I bought this as a gift for an old friend who was gifted his grandfather's Rolleiflex. He said: I got a neat manila mailer envelope from Ilford. Inside, was my negatives, sleeved and inside a white envelope, a card with small versions of my photos, a card with a half height 4GB USB stick with ILFORD on top, and a card from Brody who inspected my order. I paid extra for scanning at medium size, and the USB stick, They offer scans on a cd but I wanted the stick. All these options were clearly marked on the return envelope. Turnaround was about 10 days.
