Western Digital’s newest update to its My Passport for Mac ($100-$200) portable hard drive features 256-bit AES password-protected hardware encryption. The Time Machine-compatible hard drive uses USB 3.0 for fast transfer rates.
Backed by a three-year limited warranty, the updated My Passport for Mac comes in 1TB, 2TB, or 3TB options — we received the 2TB version.
My Passport for Mac is sleek and light for its capacity — our 2TB version is more compact than many other portable hard drives we’ve seen recently.
The body is plastic, with a faux-aluminum finish on the bottom and sides. The included USB cable plugs into the left side of the drive.
