Review: Works right out the box and that is Amazing! It stopped working I ordered a replacement! - Update: It stopped working and I ordered a replacement because I love it! First, let me say I love my MacBook Pro and it is my baby. Everything I hook up to has to be an item that I trust. I have completed a lot of research on external hard drives. The majority of them have to be formatted to even work with the MacBook. This WD 2TB My Passport for Mac Portable External Hard Drive does not need to be formatted. Also, I do not need an adapter for it to fit. This is specially designed for Mac and Time Machine and USB-C and USB-A compatible and Password protected. It is just so easy to use. It works straight out of the box. I use it to import and export movies. Also to store photos from my computer in order not to use up my storage or in case something happens to my computer. It is also small for me to carry on the go easily. This works so easily and I am happy I did not have to set up anything else to make it work.
Review: Western Digital Drive to Backup My Macbook Air - Western Digital has always been a more stable and reliable product line for me in the HDD space whether internal or external. This drive is no different. So far, it has provided the stability and reliability that I have grown accustomed to. It is perfect for a simple backup drive I can use to backup my Macbook I plan to eventually use as a work machine. I may purchase another Macbook with the 1 TB drive and 24 GB of memory, or maybe 32 GB. I will purchase another one of these drives to as a backup drive for that system when the time comes. I recommend this drive. It is small, lightweight, and it appears to allow speedy transfer and write of data.
