6TB My Passport for Mac, Navy, Portable External Hard Drive with Backup Software and Password Protection, USB 3.1/USB 3.0 Compatible - WDBK6C0060BBL-WESN

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.

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.

... it will continue to work. I put off buying one of these because I really wasn't that worried about it but the more I was investing in programs, I decided to stop being cheap and do it. This particular model, in this size seemed to have the most consistent and best reviews even though I wanted the shiny cool aluminium one. Needless to say I downloaded mega photos and music to it as well as backing up to time machine. (I try to do it at least, daily) Anyway, sure enough as I was trying to drag a wad of photos from Dropbox to the Photos program one night, I destroyed the Mac's photos program. So after many hours of reading tutorials I got angry and decided to use this back up drive to reverse my computer back to the way it was the day before. It didn't take as long as I thought plus it was a complete mirror image and all I had to do was resign in a few places and do the fingerprint thing again. So, yes, I am very glad I bought this item and it has already saved my a**.once. Will def by another for my mega music library. Also the fact it is was instant plug and play for a Mac was a huge bonus. It does come with a cord but will not plug into the newest MacBook Pro unless you have a dongle to make it compatible. Just FYI and they aren't that much.

No glitches. Good value. I can store all my files without a problem. No more thumb drives for me.

Love it. I have two of them. Great external. Use as a backup for my Mac Time Machine. Low price.

Well made!

This external hard drive got corrupted after only two months of use. I have lost over 12,000 photos as well as other personal files. I have worked with a data recovery service who said "that when they ran the data recovery tools there were too many failed sectors to continue the recovery. Also that the HD has weak read/write heads, which require replacing parts from a donor drive". The data recovery would cost me $975 which I cannot do. I could not return through Amazon because it is past the 30 days. I called Western Digital and they told me I could get a replacement. They also referred me to their customer "Community" which I went to, and found that the majority of the community is totally dissatisfied with this product. I therefore asked if I could pay for some kind of data recovery warranty on the replacement drive and they said they don't have that. Since I DO NOT trust this product I then asked for a refund, which they have refused. I have also gone back out to Amazon to intercede about the refund. Oh, and may I add that it has been 3 weeks and I still haven't gotten the return label from WD. Terrible customer service and website!!!!! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

I really like Western Digital hard drives. I have a couple of these external drives that I use for backing up our computers, and have never had an issue with either. These are high quality products. Easy to set up, although it would be nice if step-by-step instructions were included. That being said, I was able to figure it out. The backup capability is exactly what I needed.

Die WD My Passport for Mac (2 TB) ist für mich der ideale mobile Speicher am Mac. Sie ist gut verarbeitet, kommt ohne Netzteil aus und wird bei mir zuverlässig erkannt – anstecken und loslegen. Für eine HDD ist sie ausreichend schnell (Backups, Dateien, Fotos etc. absolut okay) und insgesamt stimmt das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis für mich richtig gut. Fazit: Solide, unkomplizierte Mac-Festplatte mit fairer Performance – klare Empfehlung.

Muy buen disco, a la fecha sin ninguna falla.

Produto Excelente

最初はこの小ささで2TB？！？！っと驚きましたが、本当に2TBでデータの取り入れも取り出しも問題無くできています！持ち運び用に買ったのですが、本当にコンパクトで電気もいらないので、使いやすいです。

Tuve otro anterior de 1TB durante varios años que, al final, dejó de funcionar. No lo dudé a la hora de cambiarlo. WD me resulta muy fiable. En esta ocasión adquirí uno de 2TB para guardar documentos de trabajo, archivos de fotos, videos y música. Funciona (de momento) a la perfección. Lo más atractivo para mi es la facilidad de uso. Conectarlo al iMac y ¡a funcionar!. Sin hacer ninguna conversión de sistemas de archivos. Cierto es que no he podido utilizarlo con un SO distinto al de Mac. Por lo que he podido leer, acaso no sea compatible con otros sistemas, por ejemplo Windows. Pero lo utilizo exclusivamente como disco de copia de seguridad de documentos creados y guardados en Mac.
