External Hard Drive My Passport Wd

I am using this case to store my WD 2TB My Passport External Hard Drive. The cover is semi rigid which provides some protection against accidentally banging the hard drive, although I would not want to drop the hard drive. It also provides a separate area for storing the USB cable which comes with the hard dive. Very convenient.

WD 5TB My Passport for Mac USB 3.0 External Hard Drive (Midnight Blue) Purchased 06/10/2020: Backed up my data and storage allows for many additional activities and tasks.

WD 5TB My Passport USB 3.2 Gen 1 External Hard Drive (2019, Black) Works perfectly for TimeMachine back up on MacMini -late 2014 OS10. Reformatted drive before using. Good price for just a little bit more memory.

I love everything about this external hard drive; it's the fourth WD My Passport drive that I have bought. I formatted it for my MacBook Pro and use it with Time Machine. It's fast, compact, it has a large capacity and it looks great. I'll be happy if this unit performs as reliably as it's three siblings.

I bought this to use with my WD 4TB My Passport for Mac external hard drive.  Perfect fit.

Having had an issue with an older WD 4TB My Passport External Hard Drive, you may wonder why I bought another one. Well, turns out that I believe the issue with the older one was actually an issue with my iMac and OS update. After recovering the data from my older ED, I reformatted it, and it has worked flawlessly since. Let's just hope that it continues to. I purchased this one just to log my Time Machine back ups.

If Western Digital made in an 8 TB shirt pocket portable external hard drive I could buy at a low enough price, I would. However, currently, it appears that only the 4TB size or capacity My Passport portable external hard drive is available. The current one I got is yellow, because that's the color I want it this time. I like to get different colored portable hard drive so I can more easily distinguish between them, since I keep different content on different portable hard drives. Last year, I bought a red colored 40b my passport portable external hard drive through Best Buy. I believe I paid around $130 or so for it. And it has worked just fine. I store all of my movies and digital videos solely on that red Drive. But it is getting close to being filled. So I needed to get another portable hard drive to put new movies on it. I'm just trying to figure out which movie is I will put on which hard drive. It has been so nice having them all on one drive heretofore, making searches for what I have and where I have it quicker and easier. I transferred all of my documentaries on to mine yellow it's hard drive that I just bought from BH photo. It seems to be working flawlessly, as my other WD My Passport drive has and does. I will add that it only took 3 days from the time my new yellow WD My Passport 4TB portable hard drive shipped from New York that I received it in Utah, which is great! (Usually, it often takes a full week)! It was a little weird to have to wait until a certain time in the evening, when The Jewish Sabbath ended, I suppose, before I could digitally order the hard drive from them on Saturday evening. However, I too am religious, and believe In keeping the Sabbath day holy--so I can understand why they do what they do, somewhat. I we paid around $110 for this WD 4 TB hard drive, which is about 20 bucks less than a cost me for the same hard drive through or from Best Buy last year sometime.

WD 5TB My Passport for Mac USB 3.0 External Hard Drive. Easy install. Handles my 2 and 3Gb photo files quickly, along with other file transfers. It allows to use my thunderbolt port and speed to my advantage. Nothing is really fast enough for me but its a reasonable start at a reasonable cost with reliability.

The WD 2TB My Passport USB 3.2 Gen 1 External Hard Drive is an excellent memory device, small and powerful, and makes it easy to organize and move your files within the device.

I have a number of WD My Passport, both the 1T and 2T. Wonderful little portable hard drives. I use them for my Mac Time Machine backup and for storage and backup of all my photos. I can't say if the WD brand works any better than the others since I started with WD years ago and have never switched. Even though I have not had a WD external drive fail, I do place all my photos on the WD external drive and make a backup copy on second WD drive using Carbon Copy Cloner 4. Works wonderfully. No need to reformat the drive for my mac!
