The model we’ll be looking at for this review is the WD 4TB Blue My Passport (2016 edition) that is sold under part number WDBYFT0040BBL-WESN. Here is the official WD My Passport product overview video for those that love videos.
Sure, you might be spending over $100 on a backup drive, but when you apply the costs like that it isn’t bad at all.
TABLO WESTERN DIGITAL MY PASSPORT 4TB USB 3.0 MOVIE
Backing up your wedding photos might only cost you a quarter and backing up a 4GB movie that you ripped might set you back only $0.12. Hard to complain about pricing like that when you are buying something like that for backing up your data. Online retail pricing starts at just $59.00 for the 1TB drive and goes up to $125 for the 4TB model, so you are looking at $0.06 per GB to $0.03 per GB. Since the insides are the same that means the My Passport 2016 models have 256-bit AES hardware encryption (password protection) and automatic data backups with the included WD Backup Software. The WD My Passport Ultra will be phased out soon though, so if you like the looks of the old drives better then you best hurry. Inside you’ll find a WD hard drive with capacities ranging from 1TB all the way up to 4TB! Under the hood we were told that nothing has changed from the My Passport Ultra series that was released in 2013 ( read our review) and that is why the MRSP is the same on both drives. WD now offers the series in six vibrant colors – Black, Yellow, Red, White, Orange and Blue with a completely updated look. Portable storage solutions have continued to get better over the years and just this Fall the team over at WD did a complete redesign of their popular My Passport portable USB drive series. Having a portable storage drive to ensure those memories are safely backed up is something you might want to think about. The holiday season is officially here and chances are most of us will be travelling and taking more pictures than we normally would. WD 4TB My Passport Portable External Hard Drive
