Still, CrystalDiskMark shows a clear drop-off from Seagate’s products (the company owns LaCie) when it comes to sequential throughput.The My Passport drive is trusted, portable storage that gives you the confidence and freedom to drive forward in life. The WD My Passport is faster than its Seagate and LaCie rivals with lots of smaller files and folders, but not in sustained throughput. But it’s also better than average at writing large batches of smaller files and folders, as you can see in the chart below. We started off the review with a mild warning about the My Passport 4TB’s tepid performance with large files, and indeed it falls about 10MBps short of average. This is a very nice software bundle considering that the My Passport is essentially the company’s entry-level USB drive. WD does provide backup software a drive utility that will check the status and secure-erase the drive as well as encryption software for dealing with sensitive data. WD doesn’t provide anything fancy like LaCie’s dual FAT/NTFS or HFS+ partitioning utility, but you can use the Windows or OS X (or Linux) system utilities for that.

After the color-coding response, we didn’t ask whether tactile grip was the reason, but it does have that effect. The waves also provide a better grip on the smooth, glossy plastic. WD has added even more consumer bait by beveling a stylish wavy texture into the half of the drive that’s home to the powered micro-B USB port and power indicator.

You can get them in black, black and grey, red, white, blue, orange or yellow. The 2TB to 4TB drives are similar in size at 4.33 x 3.21 x 0.85 inches but weighs more at 8.64 ounces. The wavy bevels also make for a better grip. The 1TB hard drive is 4.33 x 3.21 x 0.64 inches and weighs 5.92 ounces. The WD My Passport offers more flair than you might expect from a mainstream portable USB drive.
