Fast Data Transfer With USB 3.0 High Connectivity
One common complaint among users of external hard drives is low transfer speeds. Nobody wants to sit and wait while their files are being copied to an external drive. This is why the My Passport gives you full USB 3.0 high connectivity, which is up to three times faster when compared to the previous technology, USB 2.0. For those using older devices that don't support USB 3.0, the drive is backwards compatible with USB 2.0. But, with devices that also support USB 3.0 high connectivity, you?ll be backing up your files at blazing fast speeds.
Use Automatic Backup Software to Safeguard Important Files
Doing your backups manually may seem like quite a chore, which is why Western Digital has included automatic backup software with the My Passport line of hard drives. This automatic backup software lets you automatically backup selected files to the drive, which means you will never forget to backup again. For more security, the software lets you add password protection to the drive's contents as well.

This drive has been specially designed for maximum portability thanks to its sleek form factor, allowing you to easily carry your data everywhere you go. The device is fully USB-powered, so there's no need to carry around yet another power adapter with you. Numerous stylish carrying cases have been made for the My Passport line of portable drives as well.
