### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by J***L on March 28, 2026*

I bought a wd passport about 8 years ago and I have loved it. So I decided to stick with the company and bought this one. It is so much faster when transfering. No problems since it worked immediately with plug in. So far I am really happy with the new one. I have one for personal things like my college work and pictures. And now one for pictures I use for making things. Glad I bought this one.
