Just in case you were wondering, Gen 2 10Gbps USB would needlessly increase cost, as Gen 1 offers more than enough bandwidth for any hard drive setup that’s not using RAID 0 or another striped format.įor Mac users, there’s a version (formatted in HFS+) of the My Passport rendered in “midnight blue.” It’s $10 more, but ships with a micro-B to Type-C cable in addition to the regular version’s micro-B to Type-A. The drive is Gen 1 5Gbps, but supports the USB 3.2 feature set. On the business end of the drive you’ll find a powered micro-B USB port and power indicator. In the overall scheme of things, grip is more important than a flashy sheen, as dropping your hard drive on a hard surface could ruin your whole day. Grip is somewhat increased because of the matte finish. At least that’s my interpretation of the motivation. The latest My Passport Drives have a nice angled two-tone color scheme with one half of the top scalloped for grip. The WD My Passport sports an angled two-tone motif and is available with a black, blue or red top.
