SEI bought a WD Passport maybe 3-4 years… I bought a WD Passport maybe 3-4 years back, just to have it as my backup for my MacBook Pro. Now I get the message that the model I discontinued and that there is no way to update it to my current operative system. What am I supposed to do with a hard drive that only works for 3-4 years? You really suck WD, wish I could give you -5 stars!

GBWD OS5 more like OS0 Been happy using WD mycloud products for years, unfortunately now have a paperweight due to OS5 firmware update, cannot go back, and has been indexing everything for over two weeks now. running at max CPU,RAM. Drive no longer responsive, cannot access anything remotely or locally. WD only answer is to turn off indexing. This stops cloud access! Device is therefore no longer working as advertised. Why everything has to be indexed is beyond me. Files folders worked perfectly well. Someone needs to be fired at WD for this. I will never buy WD again and recommend everyone keeps well clear of these cowboys.

AUI bought 2x new 10TB NAS HDD I bought 2x new 10TB NAS HDD. Tried installing in a Synology NAS enclosure. Something went wrong - was it Synology or WD or User fault?? Sent back under warranty to WD in Australia with crossed fingers. Just received 2x NEW HDD replacements. Friggin' amazing. Blown away by how fast and replacement policy. This is how HiTech companies should treat their customers :) Ill buy more in future knowing even though I'm not a fully qualified techno, I can get backup from these guys.

GBPathetic Ordered an external drive. Money taken immediately. Got an email a week later stating a refund had been issued as the item was out of stock. The drive is still showing available to buy on website. Went on online chat to ask why. Told that the system takes time to update !! Very poor for a company selling computer components to have a poor, not fit for purpose computer system. I won't be buying anything from WD again.

GBIf only there was a 0* option. If only there was a 0* option. I wouldn't recommend My passport to my worst competitor. Started eighteen moths ago, bought a My passport to back up my account and work. Failed out of the blue had to get the data recovered at my own expense. Thinking that may be just a one off bought a better My passport six months later déjà vu. So then bought another that I believed to have a digital back up, but no and six months down the line pop goes the hard-drive spent three days trying to get the damn thing to work then three hours going around and around in circles with their customer support chat answering the same questions over and over.
