| 126 of 133 people found the following review helpful  An essential storage backup tool in a digital world, By This review is from: Western Digital My Passport 2 TB USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive -WDBY8L0020BBKNESN (Black) (Personal Computers) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?) I'm a computer repair technician, and one issue I have all the time with my customers is, the famous, 'a virus hijacked my computer and those precious pictures are inside'. Yeah, the prom, the honeymoon, or the newborn pictures are usually held without ransom. Most of the time we are dealing with malware of some sort that affects the Windows operating system files, but leaves the data intact. So, before I repair the computer, I rescue the pictures, and any other file they might value. However, not all repair technicians do this, most allege that the files are corrupted, which might be the case, but usually it really means they are too busy to rescue anything, don't know how to do it, or will not do it unless paid big cash.For one own's sakes, the best thing to do is backing up the data before the computer gets infected, or the hard drive fails. For pictures I recommend backing up the original files into data discs, but for faster everyday files backups (music, movies,...

So-So software, By LDB (Florida) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Western Digital My Passport 1 TB USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive - WDBBEP0010BBK-NESN (Black) (Personal Computers) This is my first experience with a Western Digital hard drive. I purchased the 1 TB Passport drive as opposed to others mainly because CNET awarded its Editors' Choice for the 2 TB model ( which was not available for sale when I placed my order). I am currently using the WD SmartWare (version 1.5.4.5) that comes with loaded the device.Pros: Smart form-factor. Very small and sleek for a 1TB drive. USB powered ( just plug it into your USB port). No need for a power cable or bulky ac adapter. Makes for true portability. Impressive USB 2.0 speed during my initial back up of 131 GBs worth of files/content. Automatic file backup feature One USB cable( supplied)supports both 3.0 and 2.0. Surprisingly quiet and runs fairly cool too. Excellent customer support. I called twice and spoke to well trained/professional technicians. Cons: WD Smartware software. Surprisingly so-so for this cool little device. Not as intuitive or...

Let's face it. Computers break and hard drives fail. If you're like me, you have your entire music collection, countless photos, and important documents on your home computer. It's important to back up your files in at least one, if not two, places.Cloud services are becoming more popular, with the Amazon Cloud, the iCloud, Box, Dropbox, Google Drive and others offering free and paid cloud storage. While these services have their merits, it would take me a super long time to upload my entire music collection (over 90 gigabytes) to a cloud service, so a hard drive is a better solution. Enter the Western Digital Two terabyte My Passport portable hard drive, which offers a relatively fast and easy way to back up your important files. The My Passport is super small. It's USB-powered, which means you don't need an adaptor to run the hard drive. One negative for me is the proprietary cable needed to connect the drive to your computer. If you lose the cable, you can't... Read more |
