My Passport External Hard Drive Instructions

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 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.

I find My Passport external hard drive the most dependable and I already have two that are used almost completely.After looking at different web sites I checked B&H and to no surprise found what I was looking for.

I have been purchasing and using external hard drive for years. The My Passport is half the size with 4x the storage capacity as the first drive I purchased

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.

The only thing better, maybe, than this 2TB My Passport Portable Hard Drive would possibly be a 3TB hard drive. If you need portability with easy access to your files this is it! B&H has the lowest delivered to your door price anywhere that can be found.
