Compact, fast, and reliable WD 4TB external hard drive with good capacity and compatibility across devices. Easy to use with security features but lacks instructions and case.

Good storage and portability
This my second one as I was pleased with the first one which is still going strong. Good capacity and reasonable write speeds. Reasonably compact so easily moved from my pc to my laptop. Bought to replace my failing internal ssd which is just used for data, so now I do not need to get the ssd replaced.

Great device
Great device. I collected it very quickly from the pick-up point. I needed to send my laptop for repair, so I was able to transfer around 470 GB of data to the external hard drive with just one click in about an hour and a half. It was fast and straightforward to use. I hope it continues to work just as reliably in the future.

No longer supported by WD software
Its great extremal HDD I use for storing and backing up files (I don't subscribe to a cloud service). The only thing is, these drives are no longer recognised by Western Digital Drive Utilities (they don't appear to be supported any longer by WD or Win11), which makes some of the features un-useable. WD password lock was partly the reason I bought it, hence only 4 stars.

Hello Suwyn,
After checking with the manufacturers, I can confirm this Western Digital My Passport 4TB Portable Hard Drive is formatted for Windows, MacOS and Chrome PC's and laptop.
Can be used for Android devices, but will probably need to be reformatted.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi Hjc,
I can confirm that this is compatible with MacOS. You may need to reformat it however.
Thanks for using Q&A.
While most portable hard drives ship with the NTFS file system, it is easy to reformat a hard drive as exFAT if needed, but make this the first thing you do because you will erase it in the process. On Windows open File Explorer, select This PC, right-click the drive and choose Format. On macOS use the Disk Utility app.
Hello Lev the Dude,
After checking with the supplier, I can confirm this Western Digital My Passport 4TB Portable Hard Drive is formatted as a single NTFS partition for compatibility with all updated Windows OS.
Thank you for using Q&A
One difference between this and WD My Passport For MAC may be that the For MAC version should already be formatted for MAC operating systems, which solves the problem of reformatting if you are unsure how to do it.
Hello ana,
I can confirm that this is compatible with MacOS.
I hope this helps
Thanks for using Q&A
