## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a Mac desktop and a pc laptop and want to use it regularly with both. Will that work out of the box?**
A: Mac OSX 10.11  & 10.12 - Just open Disk Utility and erase the disk to GUID Mac OS Extended Journaled.  If you're using 10.10 or earlier first Partition the disk to GUID and then erase as Mac OS Extended Journaled.  NTFS lets Windows users work with large files, since GUID has no file size limitations and is native to Mac, Mac users don't really benefit by using NTFS.

**Q: Will it work with Xbox**
A: It's a plug and play to an Xbox one X. It will ask you on the screen for a quick format and then its ready to use. 30 seconds tops. No need to buy an WD passport X. 4 TB is more than enough for your games. I have about 30 games and it is only at 32%.

**Q: can you disassemble it for an internal hdd?**
A: a normal 1tb HDD is way cheaper than this.... and you void warranty. buy a normal 1tb HDD.

**Q: My current computer does not have 3.0 usb, only 2.0 usb. will this external hard drive and it's cable still work on my computer for backup?**
A: The USB 2.0 ports of your computer may not be able to supply enough power for this drive. In this case you need a USB 3.0 Dual Power Y Cable that can use power from two USB 2.0 ports of your computer to supply this disk.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice improvement over previous generations with amazing capacity.
*by P***P on 1 December 2016*

Review of the WD 4TB My Passport (2016) model. The photographs show the previous generation (left most in all pictures) beside this new generation of drive (rightmost drive). I'm a long time user of WD passport external usb hard drives. This is the first 4TB I've bought, used for a backup of a NAS.Capacity + Speeds:This is a USB3 hard drive, giving very fast speeds. Attached are screenshots from a benchmark utility, showing 116MB/s read 107MB/s write. For comparison, the previous generation (2TB) got 112MB/s read and 100MB/s write, so a slight improvement.The formatted capacity is 3.63 TB.The enclosure/case:The case is solid. It is a bit more fancy than previous WD My Passports, and a little bigger. Yet, it remains a solid construction and has a feeling of durability. The LED light on the back is now a horizontal slot which has a softer light compared to the previous generation drives.Comparing to the previous generation, the case is ever so slightly larger, but there really isn't much in it. See the photos. I prefer the new case as it allows multiple drives to be set on top of each other, whereas the previous generation was slightly rounded so they tended to slide off each other.Included in the box / software:The drive comes with a USB3 cable. You also get the WD Drive Utilities, Encryption software and Backup software. However, after checking the drive with the WD Utilities to ensure it survived transport safely, I wiped the drive for my own use. You can always grab a copy of the software from WD's homepage in the future.Overall, this seems like a great drive. Only time will tell how reliable it is, but it does come with a 2 year warranty as standard. This can be extended by a year if you purchase WD Care.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The perfect external drive to upgrade storage capacity of a PlayStation 4 or Pro
*by ***** on 11 March 2017*

OK, some background. I have a PlayStation Pro and was going to upgrade the 1Tb HDD to 2Tb seeing as there was no support for external storage drives. Then along came the 4.50 system software update with support for external drives up to 8Tb. The only 'catch' as such being that they need to be USB 3.0 and, according to some who were on the Beta at any rate, not have additional USB ports for some reason. Not one to take a chance with such things, and seeing as the cost difference between 8Tb and 4Tb external HDDs isn't exactly minimal, I opted for a 4Tb. My thinking being that, to be honest, when you add to internal 1Tb (which will still be used for game saves and assorted data that doesn't get stored to the external HDD) a total of 5Tb with 4Tb reserved for game installs will be plenty. Then it was a matter of which drive, and personal experience leads me towards WD (with a three year warranty) rather than Seagate. So how did the install go? Literally took less than a minute including finding the USB at the rear of the PlayStation Pro to plug it in and for the console to identify the drive and reformat it. Works like a charm. Silent in operation, tucked away out of sight behind the console and doesn't even get particularly warm either. Would I recommend this drive to anyone wanting to upgrade the storage capacity of a PlayStation 4 or Pro? Hell yes...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most Compact 4Tb In Your Life
*by C***S on 13 August 2018*

Pros:1) WD utilities for hard drive diagnostics and disc checks;2) Reliable backup software;3) I had 3x 1Tb hard drives, now I have 1x 4Tb of the same size;4) Several different color choices if you want to buy several and distinguish them from the 1st glance;5) Noiseless;6) Reliable (pulled off cable during data transfer - no issues, no disc errors);7) I am planning to buy another oneCons:1) RPM is 5400, but you cannot blame the disc, it is industry standard for compact external HDDs;2) I do not think plastic case will survive drops from table to hard floors, it "screams" for soft thick shell when it is plugged into PC;3) glossy finish looks cool, but matte one would be more practical;Summary: it is time to sell your 1Tb drives and get 4x upgrade in different colors.
