The drive’s performance is on par with the rest of the competition, and its software bundle is useful. It lacks hardware encryption and the three-year warranty, but is more than likely to pack the same hard drive as the My Passport Ultra.Īll in all, consider the My Passport Ultra if you want the lengthy three-year warranty and absolutely need a Type-C connector. Then there’s the other more affordable WD portable hard disk drive, the 4TB Elements, which retails for a smidgen under $100. Vino un amigo, que queria que le transfiriese unos programas y peliculas que tengo en mi HDD externo, cuando lo conecto todo bien, ambos discos. Plus the Seagate drive comes with a two-month complementary membership to the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography Plan worth $20. Hola, tengo un problema urgente, tenia conectado mi HDD al ordenador (uso windows 7 home premium original en ingles), y siempre ha funcionado, se me ha caido 2 veces, pero de una altura minima, pero ha seguido funcionando desde entonces, sin problemas. In a mature market where the upper limit for portable hard disk drives seems to be 4TB – we tested one of this size back in 2015! – there’s little need or desire to innovate, with pricing becoming the sole metric these drives are judged on.Īgainst the likes of the Seagate Expansion, which costs 25% less, the lure of a three-year warranty and a Type-C connector might be diminished. With a three-year warranty by default, a useful set of utilities, a reasonable retail price and decent performance, the WD My Passport Ultra 4TB (2019) marginally improves on an already good product.
