Customer Ratings & Reviews

Do yourself a favor and don't buy one if you care about your storage device being secured. THIS DEVICE HAS NO SECURITY AT ALL! This is a huge dissapointment from WD, a company I have come to trust until now. I have been using WD storage drives since 2010. I love the ability to password protect the drives I purchase from them. I opened the package on this one today in order to set it up for a secure backup and couldn't get the security software that comes with all WD drives to work. I updated the apps/software as instructed but still couldn't set a password to secure the drive. After contacting WD via phone I was told they would send me instructions for fixing the problem via email. Instead they sent me an email stating that their password security doesn't work on this drive. I am now stuck with a very expensive SSD drive custom designed "for travel" with NO ability to set even a basic password for data protection. After nearly ten years as a loyal WD customer, I am now done with all WD products. Best buy won't take returns on this item either. I don't blame Best Buy since the device was purchased in December with plans for use for travel in June. The device is also now opened so Best Buy can't be expected to eat the cost. I do hope Best Buy will note on their web page that this is not a securable device so they don't unwittingly support misleading advertising of this faulty product. This is a quote from the email WD sent me today. "I understand that you are facing issue while using the WD Security with My Passport Go SSD. I apologize for the incorrect information over the call. Please allow us to inform you that My Passport Go SSD is not compatible with WD Security application and will not work with this application. " They then told me to reply to the email with questions or to call the same number that gave me incorrect information before. I say again. DON'T Buy if you want the password protected security that previous WD storage devices came with. This device is not securable.

I use this for my Xbox One X and it works like a dream to store my additional games and saves! Well worth the purchase! Only warning, the cord is tethered to the drive and extremely short.

I seriously couldn't believe how small and light this SSD was. It feels like they forgot to put the drive inside. With the cord conveniently attached and having its own groove to hold it in the back, this is most portable drive I have ever owned and I own close to 20 if not more. It comes with software for both Mac and Windows. I installed the Mac version but I don't think you need to, it just provides more options while using it. The 64 gb drive is a bonus but I am loving the small light form factor of the 1tb ssd. Super portable !! I would highly recommend.

I like the physical size of this solid-state storage device as it is larger than a USB 'stick' and not easily lost. It is obviously light as it does not have a spinning disk, and the USB connector stows away nicely behind it and flush. The 500 GB size fits my needs and is a good value. I am buying several so I can save pictures in one, documents and other files in another, backup my laptop in yet another one. I wish it came in several colors so I can tell them apart, but it's just as easy to stick a label on it.

Small, strong, and fast. This drive works well with everything from PCs to Xbox. The flash drive made a good deal even better.

This drive came up on the daily deals at Best Buy. And a great buy it was, a 1 tb SSD drive, with a bonus 64 gb flash drive, both from Western Digital, and only a little over one hundred dollars. The drive works great! It comes with a regular USB 3.0 connector. It’s fast and reliable, couldn’t be nicer.

Very good hard drive. It's so small (size of the palm), sleek, fast and reliable. I was able to copy almost 3 GB of data in just under 30 seconds.. Love the hard drive. Drop protection is an advantage of SSD hard disk drive. Worth the money.

Great external drive. Works as an external drive should. Very compact, footprint is probably about 25% larger than a business card. Short USB cable that is hardwired in only about 6" or so, keep that in mind if you have things tucked away.

I needed an external SSD to edit some videos on. This was a fantastic drive. Very fast when editing and converting videos on. Would recommend. The added bonus of a flash drive is nice too. Can always use more portable flash drives.

I have been looking for a reasonably priced external ssd for a long time and this is ideal. The flash drrive is certainly a bonus. I also like the fact the cord is attached to the drive in a very portable manner

With SSD you don't have to worry about moving parts or heat for external hard drives. It's physically small, so it doesn't take much room. The only draw back is the USB cord it comes with is not that long.

This is really the best accessory you can buy for a Xbox One X. Not only do you double your storage capacity, but you will be wowed on how much faster games will load now. Its a startling difference. I already had a 4 TB WD Passport drive for my Xbox so I only install the games I play the most on the SSD. The USB cable is very short and does not detach from the hard drive so you basically have to sit it right on top on the console. And you will hear the console fan spin up a lot more often while reading from this drive but it is nothing to be concerned with.

WD-1TB My Passport Go Portable SSD is a sturdy option for storage on-the-go. The included USB Flash Drive gives added storage that can be carried in your pocket!

This is a great buy for your external SSD. It’s small (almost the size of a credit card) and 1TB.

Great value and stable and hopefully reliable storage solution. So far so good. Used it for Xbox, Mac and pc, just format and good to go.

both the thumb stick and drive have blazing fast speeds. i use the thumb-stick for windows upgrades and the drive for server migrations.

Very quick and easy to use. Stored 3 computers worth of info as well as pictures and music from the last decade. Can fit in your pocket.

Very fast and quiet transfer of data. 64GB flash drive was a nice bonus and comes in handy. Fair price. Great value.

fast, small and attached cable. perfect for my project drive while i'm away from home. USB thumb drive is a nice plus.

This tiny little external harddrive is an amazing accessory for my Xbox One X, it's made all my largest games load twice as fast.
