Good to know
These are mechanical hard drives, not SSDs. Actual transfer speed depends on the computer, USB port, file size and operating system. Software features require compatible WD software, and the drive may need to be reformatted for certain uses. Protect the hard drive from shocks and safely disconnect it before moving it.
Why choose WD My Passport
My Passport is suitable when you want plenty of local storage in a small, USB-powered format. Several capacities make it easy to choose according to the amount of data you have and how much space you want for future backups.
PC & HiFi Örebro recommends
Use the external drive as part of a backup strategy and keep at least one additional copy of important files in another physical location. For working directly with large files or daily transport, an external SSD is a better choice because it is faster and more resistant to shocks.
