☝️A PREVIEW TO PURCHASE : *********************************** I like to keep backups of backups of my lifetime collected data & thus have over 15 TB of external harddisks in my arsenal with a dominant share of Western digital disks( both passport & elements ) & few others like Transcend , Samsung SSD & a seagate ( old usb 2.0 ). 🔶️ Now , whenever we opt to go for a new external Disk purchase, the following challenges are encountered & if you are planning to invest thousands in purchase - my detailed review, even though a bit lengthy is worth reading. 👉 HDDs vs SSDs : ********************** While none of the mechanical HDDs can reach the blazing fast speeds of SSDs in excess of 500 MB/s R/W, The HDDs definitely offer a better value for money per MB of storage. Also if data is corrupted in a SSD its almost never retrievable while in a HDD , there is always a hope depending upon extent of damage. 🔷️ So for majority bulk backup - HDD are a better option to costlier SSDs. 👉 WD vs Seagate : ********************* This is again a topmost struggle making a decision. 🔸️Now both are giant reputed american storage brands & preference is mostly based upon personal usage experiences. 🔸️I read somewhere that seagate offers better speeds& WD better reliability but i dont feel its true as speeds depend upon type of files being transferred & reliability upon manufacturing processes , which is hard to doubt for both brands. 🔸️ Regarding price WD is a bit costlier to seagate for same capacity. 🔸️ Both offer same warranties of 3 years. I had a wd failure & my friend had seagate failure - yet we both got replacements with data restored from their service centres. 🔸️ Regarding inbuilt software , i suppose WD is better as it comes with WD discovery that can link with all your social portals for backup too. 🔷️ So you can go for any of these brands - WD being my personal favourite. 🔷️ To ensure failsafe operation , testing for bad sectors before use ( using WD utility or any other HDD inspection software like HD sentinel etc ) is always a good idea. 🔷️ Store these drives horizontally in a dry case & not vertically or inclined , as in latter case the heads and platters tend to deform & get stuck. I learnt it the hard way. 💝 I bought the latest 2019 4 TB passport drive and 3.63 TB of usable space was available in it. 🔸️ The packing as usual was good enough with an instruction manual & 8 inches of connecting cable. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ The HD enclosure is premium ABS plastic which can surely withstand few non- severe slips & falls. A periphery cushioning or base padding with shock absorbent rubber would additionaly be great. 4.2 /5 ⭐ 🔸️ The design & looks of this new drive aren't as elegant & classy, as previous passports & elements as my personal opinion. 2/5 ⭐ 🔸️ The drive is very compact, sturdy & light weight too. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ It was formatted in NTFS mode with 4096 bytes of allocation unit size. ExFat is another option & you can play with allocation size also for better speeds but a bit less space. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ With a mixed media & software file folder transfer of 5 GB , i registered - a write speed of 112 MB /s & a read speed of 160 MB /s on my HP omen core i7 configuration , which i suppose is fair enough for a mechanical Hard drive. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ The new Hard disk has softwares for mac & windows backup both. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ The HD has a very small point like white led indication for status & won't bother much in dark rooms. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ The HD is very silent during operation & doesn't heat much even after few hours of backup. 5/5 ⭐ 🔸️ Warranty offered is 3 years which is contemporary to industry standards & similar to seagate. As already quoted earlier , i had one harddisk replaced & data restored in warranty like 6 years back by WD. So no issues there, noone is going to offer pick & drop at home - be assured. 🤏 Final Verdict : ********************** All in all , I have always been a WD guy & this new 2019 version further restores my faith in the same.

Pros: + I been buying a few of the WD 4TB external USB 3.0 hard drives + Reliable, ~80mb-100mb read/writes + Plug and play, auto detected + Price, WD put a this product in a really sweet price point making it somewhat affordable for the size + Available colors, there are so many colors to choose from vs other brands/vendors Cons: - It can get expensive off sale - Older models have slower transfer rates, slightly and higher failure rates. 1/10 failed prematurely. - LED light facing the plug side which are usually the opposite side when you want to know if there's any activity.

I bought this since I needed to clone my 2TB M.2 drive & this was cheaper compared to 2TB SSDs (both SATA & M.2 formats). Unfortunately, Clonezilla stated that this drive has less number of sectors compared to my 2TB M.2 SSD. I'm just now using it to backup some documents on my PC. Read more

I chose this drive because it's a name brand - I have had bad experiences with no name portable drives and do not recommend those for any purpose. So this nice Western Digital drive looks pretty, I do love the colour, and its reliable enough. Read more

requested by son for his files storage. he liked it Read more

You can't go wrong with Western Digital. Very small package for huge storage. Plug and Play - connected the USB cable, (included) and my computer immediately recognized it. The portable drive is larger than the drive on my laptop, so I partitioned it into 2 virtual drives. One partition for an Image/Backup and a second partition for file backup & storage. The partitioning process was flawless and now my computer recognizes two separate drives. I am super happy with the WD SSD portable drive. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a portable drive. I'm even thinking about buying another larger drive and partitioning into more virtual drives for backup of other computers. My only complaint and major disappointment with WD, is that the free "WD Backup" software is no longer supported by WD and hasn't been for a few years. They offer a free version of Acronis, which doesn't work. Installed the Acronis software, created a bootable disk on a USB Flash (thumb) drive, then rebooted the computer from the thumb drive and created a full backup/ disk image to the new WD drive. The software seemed to run perfectly, and said the backup was successfully created. I felt really good that I had a full backup of my 2015 laptop, in case I ever need to replace the mechanical HDD. But it was a false peace of mind. Only 2 weeks after using the Acronis backup software, my computer was crashing shortly after bootup, which it had never done before. So I thought I would test the new drive and backup. After rebooting with the Acronis USB Boot drive, it asked for the location of the image file. The computer recognized the WD drive with all of the Acronis backup folders. But then the Acronis software said all of the folders were empty and there was No Image found. WTF?! Acronis said it successfully made a full disk copy. But then the software could not find its own image. DO NOT USE the ACRONIS software. I was fortunately able to fix the boot/crash problem using other software. But if my hard drive had completely failed, I would not have a usable backup copy to restore to a new drive. I would have been screwed. It would have been better if I never attempting to create a backup. At least I would known that I didn't have a backup copy to rely on, rather than falsely thinking I was protected. In addition, the "free" software isn't really free. It's only a 30 day free Trial version. So if you make a full backup within 30 days, and later have a critical problem, you will be forced to purchase the full version to perform the restore. The backup file versions are propitiatory, so you can't use another brand of software to do the restore. They've got you! You can make a free backup/copy (if you can even get the software to work properly). But then you have to pay for the software to actually use the Backup in order to Restore. This is akin Ransomware. I have since purchased other backup/imaging software and made a full (working) backup to my new WD drive. I'm very happy about that. Read more

This WD external hard drive arrived very promptly after ordering in perfect condition in commercial packaging. It is small yet mighty with 4TB of storage space and uses USB to connect to a hub. Works fine. I have used Western Digital products many times over the past 30 years and they have proven to be reliable and relatively long lasting computer hardware. Performance (read-write speeds for data transfer) are fine. Not light speed but perfectly good for a home movie, music and gaming library or backup. Read more

WD is very good products. using the same HDD already many years. and ibreally love it. Never had problems so far with WD. Just do not drop it 🙈 in total u will get around 4.6 TB ,nowadays it's not that much. PS. Waiting when Ssd get cheaper !!! Read more

I decided to wait almost 11 months before writing this review, hoping to give the product a fair chance. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a complete disaster. After just a few months of use, the drive started slowing down significantly. It would write at normal speeds for a short while, then drop to nearly zero, making even basic file transfers frustrating. Eventually, I encountered the dreaded "can't read from source file or disk" error, and the drive became unusable. I ran tests using chkdsk and CrystalDiskInfo, which revealed bad sectors and a high pending sector count, meaning the drive was physically degrading and couldn't be trusted with my data anymore. This drive is simply unreliable, especially considering that I have three other 5TB drives (bought over 3 years ago), all of which are still working perfectly. In contrast, this WD Passport has been an abysmal experience. My advice: Do NOT be tempted by discounted tech products. This drive broke down in a matter of months, and it's simply not worth the risk. Be careful and ALWAYS buy from the original store to ensure quality and reliability. Save yourself the trouble, and avoid this drive altogether. Read more
