WD 2TB My Passport Ultra Portable Hard Drive HDD, 20th Anniversary Emerald Drive, USB-C, with Backup Software and Password Protection - WDBJXT0020BGN-WESN

THE WORST EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE I HAVE EVER BOUGHT...and I own about 15, of various brands - LaCie, G Drive, all of the brands. I think with this drive, WD probably has broken a record for the shortest cord ever made for an EHD. The cord just fell out of the drive itself. It wasn’t just a little wiggly or loose; it didn’t even come close to fitting. Just fell out. The USB side did fit into the computer port. That was the best thing I can say about this drive. When I held the cord in the drive and pushed it on an angle, and held very still, the light came on....so I waited like that for a minute to see if it would pop up on my computer, but nope. What a waste of time. Waste of money. Do not buy this unless you want to be really disappointed and irritated at having to return it.

I made a clone of my iMac on a 2 TB SSD. this 6 TB passport Ultra backs it up with Time Machine perfectly. the first backup took a little time but then it works in the background just fine. backups are quick and you won’t notice until you need it.

OK, I had a Seagate go bad. Another backup drive go bad for my MacBook Air and this thing is a real trooper. This thing is awesome. It works and I have had no problem with it.

Ordered a 5TB drive, received a 5MB (4.9MB) drive in a box labelled 5 TB. Based on the number of positive reviews for this product, I wrongfully assumed this issue had been resolved. (Shame on Amazon for continuing to market this product.) Spent several minutes using Disk Utility to verify the drive I received only has 4.9MB of storage, NOT the 5TB I purchased for a whopping $179.00+ tax. Complete waste of my time during a work day. Am returning the drive and will be purchasing another SanDisk Professional G-Drive ArmorATD because the Seagate drives I own are unreliable and dismount without notice – usually when I am in the middle of a project, which guarantees all of my changes and new work are lost. For those who are interested, I use Mac compatible, reliable external drives with a decent lifespan and transfer speed. Plug and play is a plus, not a must. I will re-format exFAT drives like the SanDisk Pro G-Drive ArmorADT. Functional cable that comes with the drive is also a must. Western Digital is notorious for shipping drives with defective cables. I decided to give this drive a try based on positive reviews posted by Amazon purchasers and a review in MacWorld (they certainly missed the mark). This product was a complete waste of my time and money. Don't be duped! Save your money and skip this external drive. If you want a great reliable external drive with a good transfer speed (that doesn't significantly degrade as the drive fills) and good lifespan (mine are 5 yrs and counting), buy the SanDisk Professional G-Drive ArmorATD. The G-Drive is a bit spendy, but they are ruggedized drives, unlike Seagate, the WD My Passport Ultra and many other brands – and you won't go thru the stupid crap I just experienced with this WD My Passport Ultra drive that only had 4.9MB of storage space. SHEESH ... The SanDisk Pro G-Drive offers VARIETY with 5 drive sizes: 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, 5TB and 6TB. They are RELIABLE and come with a good quality cable (unlike Western Digital). Note: the SanDisk is formatted to exFAT, so you will need to re-format using Disk Utility – but that's a breeze and only takes a few minutes. Save yourself time, hassle and aggravation ... avoid this drive and buy a SanDisk Pro G-Drive ArmorADT.

Had this for almost 2 years and now it's dying a slow death. it was a great media server hard drive but when it fell of the cliff, it fell fast and hard. I don't know if it was bad sectors or the constant reading but one day the write speeds just dropped to single digit MB/s and it became useless.

Bought this to backup MacBook Pro it makes backing up easy from the time I first plugged it in

This thing worked perfectly first time out of the box. Just plugged it in an backed up my I-Mac. I had several Seagate Drives fail on me recently and decided to change brands. The only beef I have with this unit is the indicator light is on the back of the unit where you plug it in. Makes no sense at all

The WD 6TB My Passport Ultra for Mac is a high-capacity, portable external hard drive designed for reliable storage and seamless backup. With USB-C and USB 3.1 connectivity, it offers fast transfer speeds and easy plug-and-play use. Built-in backup software, password protection, and ransomware defense keep your files secure, while the sleek silver design complements any Mac setup. Perfect for large media libraries, work documents, or everyday file storage, this drive combines convenience, performance, and peace of mind. I orders the 6TB to consolidate other smaller drives that had been formatted on MSFT so I can organize and delete on my new Mac. Small and quiet!

Un producto de primera calidad, con unos acabados y diseño notables. La experiencia de uso de momento genial. Ha sido conectarlo al mac y en poco más de media hora aproximadamente ha realizado una copia de casi 500gb. A nivel sonoro, diría que es imperceptible. Muy satisfecho con la compra.

Just started using this disk that I bought in july, but today it broke down on me. Unable to mount and making bad sounds. Probably lost all data on it.

Je n'ai que des disques durs WD et je n'ai jamais eu de soucis. Je recommande pour ceux qui ont besoin de matériel fiable sur la durée.

Dopo anni di onorato servizio ho dovuto sostituire un analogo hard disk western Digital, in quanto il settore del disco era non leggibile/danneggiato. Hard disk compatto, di nuova generazione, bello da vedere, leggero e sottile. Buone performance riguardo il trasferimento dei dati grazie alla porta usb c (presente adattore usb 3.0). Si può anche utilizzare con windows 10 scaricando appositi driver o riformattando l'unità. Consigliato l'acquisto anche per la garanzia di affidabilità del marchio. Spedizione Amazon Prime velocissima con consegna in locker, in alcuni casi si spreca meno tempo che andare in un negozio fisico tradizionale.

Very good deal, working fine
