Easy to set up. Fast transfers and a small footprint. I traditionally swap out my external drives about once a year. Each year they get bigger. This year I bought 2 5TB drives to replace my older pair of 2TB drives. (My old ones will remain an archive.) So far, I have only activated one, but it is working fine.

WD 5TB My Passport Portable Storage External Hard Drive was what I needed for extra external storage space... It worked the way it was supposed to have... I use it for my Blender 3.5... I will be installing the new 4.0 version when it improves from its beta version...

This is the unit recommended by our tech support. We had 2 others and needed new ones. Good product for low cost.

+ small footprint for a larger capacity drive. fits in most of my drive cases + seems fast, although I have not tested the actual read/write speed + nice case design

Easy to use

Somple to set up and copy My files, good price and delivery Quite Satisfied


-small footprint - 1/4 the size of my previous 1TB external drive

Works and has room. very fast

WD has a reputation for higher quality (fewer failures) than Seagate Low cost for the amount of storage Compact size Very convenient - just plug into a USB port and start copying - comes with 19" cable

Seems to be built really well. So far so good. Looks pretty good.

Stylish case, the speed corresponds to the declared speed and is very quiet


Just plug it in an start copying files. No power brick so super portable. Included cable is short but adequate.

Good storage size Can still install lots of games

The 4 TB space is amazing. Love it... I can move files from multiple flash drives and old laptops to this one location and I love that. Consolidating my files in one place.

It worked as advertised. no gotchas, or any issues. This was on a MAC (M4 laptop).

Durable. Light Non Gloss surface so labels stick well. Decent transfer speeds. Comes with A USB C to C cable. As well as A USB C to A cable.

My needs are a little different than most; I use the drive primarily for weekly backups around 200-250GB/week, in very, very large VM .7z archives for the most part. The Toshiba can handle a 100MB/s average write rate when you are copying under Windows 10 with a proper FUNCTIONING USB 3.1 port. (It turns out my previous poor review was due to static-nuked front ports.)
