Nice piece of kit, good support
I had been using a 2T hard drive from the same people but it is not portable, too big & heavy. I decided to go for the benefits of a small & neat SSD especially as I was buying a new PC which has an inbuilt SSD. I keep my old HD fully backed up but switched off. If I did get a wipe-out attach at least a have a "vault" copy. I tried to register the SSD online but it was not recognised. I contacted WD and they tried but failed to register it for me. A few days later they came back and said that they had proof it was a legitimate WD device and they registered it on their records for me. A load of firms would just wash their hands. Quite please with it all - except that the data cable is far too short & it sits too high on the PC. The bonus is that it now has good airflow, as SSD's can really heat up.

Good but a little overpriced
Nice little USB drive, works fine and transfer rates seem entirely reasonable within a few ticks of the advertised speeds. Physically quite attractive in nice red finish I selected. Could have done with a better/longer cable, and you are paying a little extra for the Western Digital brand name.

Very fast, small and hot after backing up 180gb
I connected the ssd drive to my laptop to use Time Machine, backup software. After TM did the formatting, it was ready for backup. Initially, I had some trouble restarting Time Machine and connecting to ssd so I had to reboot the laptop to get it to work again. However, once it began backing up, it was impressively fast—160 GB in just an hour. The drive did become quite hot during the process, which is a bit concerning. Overall, I'm pleased with its performance, but I'm worried about potential mounting issues or damage due to the heat it generates.

I recommend this product Tremendous service/support. See review
We were recommended to purchase a WD 1TB My Passport Portable SSD, External NVMe Solid State Drive, USB-C, up to 1050 MB/s, Works with PC, This we could order off Amazon. This would allow us to automatically back up the required programs each week at a certain time. When it arrived we plugged it in and followed the instructions, to set it up. Unfortunately it did not back up the programs that we were using. However I contacted WD. I had to fill a lot of information on their site before we could get to the problem. (Which I realised why later) After which I was amazed that I had a phone call from them. With his help we cleared everything I had done and started again. The guy was very patience and talked me through how to set it up and more. I checked the day after it was set the backup, which it had He followed it up with an email a few days later to see if all was ok, which it had. I recommend this product and the support which I received was brilliant. Tremendous service/support.

Very good for a small hard drive!
What can I say about this amazing hard drive, it downloads games fast, it runs the games smoothly and it's compact enough so it doesn't get in the way like the big hard drives commonly seen. Very pleased.

Poor-quality product
I ordered this Western Digital product, having bought others of good quality made by them. I was very disappointed because it immediately malfunctioned when I tried to format it in Mac-OS journaled, one of the file formats which is best for Macs. Whatever the design of this device, it should have been able to cope with this. I know of no other storage device which cannot manage being formatted in this way. After it failed its formatting, it was no longer recognised and was useless. I don't know if the original FAT32 format is more useful for other applications (I have never used it) and maybe, in hindsight, I should not have tried to re-format the drive, but I do not remember any advice of this type on the description. Next time I will make sure I only buy drives pre-formatted for Macs. Western Digital do make these, and I will stick to them in future.

Super dysk jak za tę cenę. Prędkości zgadzają się z specyfikacją, jakoś wykonania też całkiem ok

Ho acquistato questo hard disk WD My Passport SSD portatile 4 TB perché avevo esaurito lo spazio sul mio vecchio WD Passport meccanico da 2 TB, arrivato sigillato perfettamente ed integro l'ho messo subito alla prova e ho notato che collegato via USB A non è molto veloce, ovvero non raggiunge i 1.050 MB/s promessi, li raggiunge solo se collegato ad USB C (3.2 Gen). Io l'ho collegato alla mia porta USB 3.0 facendo attenzione al verso delle freccette. Per fortuna la Western Digital ha fatto un cavetto a senso unico nel senso che non si può sbagliare l'inserimento dell'adattatore USB C -> USB A perché ci sono delle scannellature nei connettori che ne impediscono l'inserimento nel verso sbagliato ed in ogni caso ci sono le freccette che indicano il corretto allineamento dei cavetti. Arriva formattato in exFAT il ché comporta che tutti i file copiati avranno 2 secondi in più rispetto all'origine e per ovviare al problema ho riformattato il disco WD My Passport SSD in NTFS. Adesso le date dei file sono integre e a poco a poco ho fatto la copia di 3 TB di dati avendo cura ogni 80 GB di dati copiati di fare una pausa di 10 minuti per permettere al disco WD My Passport SSD di rientrare nelle temperature normali. Il mio problema che ho avuto è che ho due hard disk WD RED con rotazione 5.400 RPM, dunque sono molto affidabili ma sono lenti e da qui l'effetto collo di bottiglia perché il WD My Passport SSD è molto veloce (circa 460 mb/s se collegato ad USB 3.0) ma viene rallentato dalla velocità di lettura del disco sorgente che come dicevo è un WD RED meccanico che non supera i 185 MB/s. Dunque il vero problema di cui ho letto nelle recensioni circa la lentezza non è addebitabile al WD My Passport SSD ma dal disco da cui si sta tentando la copia che limita la velocità in scrittura. Infatti copiando file dal mio disco di sistema Samsung 850 EVO PRO SSD fa esattamente 460 MB/s in lettura/scrittura sul WD My Passport SSD. Il guscio è in lega di metallo, resistente alle cadute, agli urti ed è talmente piccolo che sta comodamente dentro un taschino della giacca o della camicia. Arriva corredato dal seguente materiale: ✔ WD My Passport SSD ✔ Cavetto USB C -> USB C ✔ Adattatore USB C -> USB A ✔ Garanzia Procuratevi una prolunga USB altrimenti non potrete usarlo perché il cavetto è di circa 15 cm di lunghezza dunque impossibile da usare senza una adeguata prolunga USB. Sono piacevolmente colpito dalla solidità costruttiva di questo microscopico hard disk che altro non è che una memoria SSD inserita in un guscio di metallo. Nota del 25.04.2023: oggi pomeriggio ho ricollegato il mio WD My Passport SSD e dopo 3 ore di copiatura file ho scollegato l'hard disk che era diventato caldissimo (per fargli fare una pausa di raffreddamento) e dopo 30 minuti l'ho ricollegato, ad un certo punto mi sono accorto che la velocità era scesa a 40 MB/s fissa, non saliva nemmeno pregando, così ho scambiato le porte del mio PC ed ho scoperto che in un'altra porta USB 3.0 il disco era tornato a fare 460 MB/s di velocità, a questo punto decido di ispezionare la porta che va lenta con un programmino portabile che si chiama USBDeview e scopro che la porta USB 3.0 in questione era vista in modalità compatibilità, a questo punto mangio la foglia, ovvero con USBDeview disinstallo la porta USB 3.0 dove era collegato il mio WD My Passport SSD e così l'hard disk viene espulso, lo scollego anche fisicamente dalla porta in questione e lo ricollego alla stessa porta USB 3.0, faccio un test di velocità sulla stessa porta che prima non andava e il mio WD My Passport SSD torna come per magia a fare 460 MB/s!!! Si era sconfigurata la porta dove era attaccato l'hard disk!!! Incredibile ma vero e non so nemmeno perché ma l'importante è che ho risolto. Conclusioni? 5 stelle per adesso: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
