Compared to a previous generation 1TB WD My Passport Ultra and a 2TB Transcend drive, you’ll observe that the new 2016 edition My Passport drive sits right between the two. The drive isn’t the slimmest around but with 3 terabytes of storage on board, it is hard to find fault with this. Unfortunately, we see this getting scratched really quickly. The parts are segregated by matte and glossy finishes with the latter being a fingerprint and smudge magnet. The chunky feel makes sure that it is very grippy and looks really unique albeit a bit thicker than the competition.There’s a two-tone gradient on the face of the drive that further accentuates design. Dressed up in pastel shades and chunky designs, the My Passport drive almost looks like a lego brick from afar. With the 2016 edition My Passport drives, WD is giving their already good-looking and slim portable drives a complete makeover. You wouldn’t mind this hard drive lying around the living room.
Designed by Yves Behar, the design is quite unlike anything else on the market. Read on for the review where we’ll talk about both the design element as well as the drive performance.Īs we saw with in our Seagate Backup Plus Ultra Slim review, it is quite evident that design is fast becoming a premier element for a product that has traditionally been just a spinning drive in a black box. With the colorful new My Passport refresh, WD seems to be aiming at a more youthful demographic.
WD MY PASSPORT ULTRA 4TB REVIEW 2016 FULL SIZE
From the old full size external hard drives, cloud connected drives to the present day 2.5″ Passport sized drives, the company has a product for everyone. Western Digital or WD as it is commonly called is a house hold name when it comes to storage products.
