Review on πŸ’Ύ WD My Passport Ultra 500 GB Portable External USB 3.0 Hard Drive (Old Model) - Blue - Auto Backup Feature Included by Lyon Forrest

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Hard drives die or just Western Digital

Purchased October 2014 Died 20 August 2019 Purchased October 2014 and died August 2019 IMO the first was the 500GB MyBook, I've had a bunch of rarer/harder to find ones Music and it just lay there. That was years before Spotify and streaming music became the norm, but I know I have music on this hard drive that Spotify doesn't have. My 2TB Passport hard drive has hardly been used, I recently deleted all files and moved this to a Seagate 4TB as I decided to use a Western Digital 2TB as my Xbox One games hard drive. Now, a month after this transition, the hard drive is not working. I will be using another company's hard drives for the foreseeable future, but I'm hoping that the need for these hard drives will decrease as there is always room for wear in moving parts. First of all, I prefer things that I keep safe in the cloud for a long time.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Upgradable
