Non-trivial appearance
The first thing that attracts attention in WD My Passport for Mac NEW is its non-trivial appearance by the standards of external HDDs. The front panel is visually divided into two symmetrical halves: the top is the usual smooth plastic, the bottom is an angular corrugated pattern. It is especially great that in addition to the black colour that has set the teeth on edge, the drive can be found in orange, red and blue. Someone from the audience will shout that this is too youthful, but we do not see the connection between age and love for black. Definitely, this is a gadget that you want to get out of your bag when you arrive at the office and put it in the most prominent place on the table.
Easy integration with Mac
Given that the design shot and My Passport hard drives went to the people, the manufacturing company WD released several different variations of this model. As you can guess from the name, our hero is designed to work with Mac. It is formatted to work with the latest revisions of MacOS, has a USB-C connection, and the drive itself integrates confidently into Apple's Time Machine backup utility. We can say that this is a more accessible answer to LaCie with its elite "outsiders" for Apple. Other operating systems are also supported, but for this the drive will most likely have to be formatted.
Peak speeds and unusual software
You can't say much about the drive itself, it seems that the same high-quality HDD of its own production is used here, which gives peak for its format 125 – 130 MB / s in both directions. On average, the speed is kept at 95 MB / s. This is the standard speed for this class of devices. More interesting here is an additional package that comes with the drive. The first time you connect, you will find several useful programs for creating a system backup, enabling hardware encryption, and monitoring the status of the drive. An unusual feature was the WD Discovery utility, which allows you to link multiple cloud storage accounts (iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) in a common interface, and then manage them as a single entity. Against the backdrop of all this, the only drawback is the too short cord. With a laptop it's convenient, but with a computer it's a hassle.
