WD 4TB My Passport USB 3.0 Secure Portable Hard Drive (Blue)

UPC's:
Fast and quiet, what more can you want?
I bought two of these to put together a Raspberry Pi NAS using Open Media Vault, using the drives in a software RAID. Transfer speeds are quick, drives are quiet enough for where I use them. Can't speak to reliability as I've only used them for a couple of weeks. Pricing was great, better than the big-river-name store and no sales tax!

Great Backup Hard Drive
This is my back up hard drive for my laptop and it works great. The software it comes with automatically backs up my computer and I feel my data is safe.

Great Product
I bought this to carry my photo library as I travel. The 4TB will last me a good while, and the weight of it makes it easy to throw in the camera bag. I have a tendency to leave things behind on trips, so the bright yellow color comes in handy. I also like the locking feature of the Hard Drive. If I do lose it, my images are secure. Would buy again.

Big storage in a small package
I purchased this drive to replace a Seagate drive that had begone giving me issues. Not much to add other than the USB cable is a little short.

Simple, Cost Effective Back-Up
I do video and have been buying internal hard drives to mount in a dock for backup purposes. The problem is that one has to develop a routine for backing up...Loss of a video project would be catastrophic; I found the Passport to be a simple, cost-effective solution. As usual BH's service was great!

Solid purchase, no buyer's remorse.
I haven't had a lot of time to get to know the limitations of this product yet, but a lot of times with electronics you can get a feel for the quality within a week or so. The hardware is solid (not solid-state, just sturdy), and it feels very secure, but I would recommend purchasing some kind of case to keep it in, just to protect from drops and for piece of mind when carrying around. The disk is extremely quiet; I usually can't hear it over my ... Show More

I recommend it, and will buy another if I need one.
The price was good and delivery was as promised. Just what is expected by B&H. Plug and play means there is no drama in getting it to work. Good product.

Good case, can be improved
Good case, could be made sturdier. It could also have a dedicated pocket for a USB flash drive

Goof machine, very short on User Instructions
Needs detailed instructions for use. Mine had none,. I tried to do Mirror Image backup from Carbonite on to it for about 110 gigs of my laptop data. It did not do it. Short of calling WD there is no option to resolve this. I have reviewed the WD website based info and the FAQs. I can save normal backups easily, so the drive is working fine.

real compact. good quality. but needs protection
I received the item in a very well-protected box. The price I got for mine is just right, compared to the price of the same items here in my country. Upon opening, I was surprised to see that it's much smaller than expected. Cables and accessories also very good quality. The power brick is virtually larger and heavier than the hdd itself. So said it's just 5400rpm and not 7200rpm, but so far the speed is good and never had any hiccups. If there b... Show More

Truly plug and play, wonderful.
If you need a portable hard drive you can not go wrong with this. It is a gift for my best friend in Nepal.

Works great, perfect size.
Quick and simple. Plugged it into my Win7 desktop though a USB 3.0 expansion card and it was immediately ready to go. The transfer speeds have been good with had no problems or hiccups playing large hi-def media files directly from it. The size is also great for portability (approx 3 x 4.25 x 0.75). I use mine to back up my entire work system (so I can grab it quickly in an emergency), and also for travel.

Great product
I bought a black one and a white one to use as back ups. They are both great and were easy to format. For some reason though, the black one does not always register right away on my computer when I plug it in. Sometimes it will right away, sometimes I have to unplug and plug it back in. I also love the tiny rubber feet on the bottom that keep it from slipping all over my desk. Overall great product.

Great for extra external backup
I use the 4TB Passport USB 3.0 to back up a 27 iMac and a G-Force external RAID 1 drive that I use for all media like photos, movies, audio, etc. I partitioned the Passport USB 3.0 so 1TB is used to back up the iMac's SSD main system drive and the remaining 3TB are used to back up the G-Force external drive. The ability to use the included USB 3.0 cable for power as well as data makes it easy to store the Passport USB 3.0 in my safe deposit box for a very secure external copy of my entire system.

Another flawless USB hard drive purchase from B&H
My intended usage is for TimeMachine-based backups of 2 Mac Mini computers. It is my primary backup disk augmented by a 2nd external hard drive from a second manufacturer purchased at a different time. Good: 1) It works as expected out of the box 2) Pricing 3) B&H consistently delivers on-time without issues Inconvenient but expected: it assumes that it would be used in a Windows environment.

Good for Xbox one external storage use
I use this for xbox storage. Works great. Haven't seen how it holds up over time, but much cheaper than internal storage. Price couldn't be beat

Excellent product
I bought this drive to store frequently accessed files. It does the job. As usual, B&H delivered the item very quickly. I recommended this item to my sister-in-law who purchased the same drive in blue.

Price made the difference.
I bought this product since it was much cheaper from USA than here in Norway. It is to be used as a mobile backup to another backup for my pictures and music. It works perfect from day one.

Exactly what I was looking for!
I bought this hard drive to replace my old photo hard drive, and bought a second one to back it up as well. The size of the hard drive is small and everything works great.

I would buy this product again
I have used various WD My Passport Hard Drives of various capacity before including 500 gb/1Tb & 2Tb drives. The ones using usb 3.0 have far superior transfer rate than the usb 2.0. Plug and play is extremely easy to use.
