Read Our Fantom Drives DataShield Portable SSD DSS1000 (1TB) Review The 4TB My Passport weighs 8.6 ounces, the same as the Seagate Backup Plus, but a tad heavier than the My Passport Ultra (8 ounces). It's bulkier and a lot more expensive, but it's also built to withstand drops, dust, and water. And while the 4TB My Passport is perfectly fine for everyday portability, you'd probably want to consider a hardier option like the LaCie Rugged RAID ($149.99 at Amazon UK) (1.3 by 3.75 by 6) if you need to bring your data to harsher terrains and climates. Measuring 0.85 by 3.21 by 4.33 inches (HWD), it's a smidge thicker than both the 2TB My Passport Ultra ($149.99 at Amazon UK) (0.8 by 3.25 by 4.5) and Seagate Backup Plus (0.8 by 3.1 by 4.5), but not so much that it makes a significant difference. The drive comes in six color options-black, orange, red, white, yellow, and an extremely bold blue (like our review unit)-and other capacities of 1TB ($79.99), 2TB ($109.99), and 3TB ($149.99) are available. The lower half also houses the USB connector port and a disk activity light, and there are four rubber feet on the bottom to keep it from slipping. The upper half of the drive's front is smooth and glossy, with sharp edges and the company logo, while the lower half is matte and textured with raised lines. Hyde design for the My Passport ($149.99 at Amazon UK). This time around, Western Digital has opted for sort of a Dr. The 4TB version ($159.99) of the new 2016 design doesn't quite beat out the Seagate Backup Plus Portable Drive (4TB) ($149.99 at Amazon UK), our Editors' Choice for portable drives, in terms of cost, cloud storage, or performance, but it does its job well and its design adds a bright pop of color and personality.
Options like the Western Digital My Passport pack enough storage and are small enough that you'd be able to comfortably carry your entire life in your pocket or purse.
