Our take
The WD My Passport is a quintessential portable hard drive, and this 2TB version is a solid choice. The 2.5-inch form factor is perfectly portable, and the black design is classic and understated. With USB 3.0, you'll get decent speeds for transferring files, and the 5400 RPM drive is typical for this category. The 3-year manufacturer warranty is a definite plus, offering peace of mind. It's an HDD, so it won't be as blazing fast as an SSD, but for 2TB of reliable, portable storage for your PC, it's a dependable option.
