Western Digital My Passport 500GB External SSD with USB 3.2 Gen 2 (USB-C), Portable, Hardware Encryption, Password Protection, Shock Resistant, Grey

The WD My Passport External SSD utilizes NVMe technology to achieve high data transfer rates via a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface. This performance level facilitates the rapid handling of large file libraries, such as high-resolution images or complex video projects. The drive is powered directly from the host device through its USB-C port, eliminating the need for a separate power adapter. Integrated 256-bit AES hardware encryption provides a layer of security for stored files, while password protection helps prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information.

The grey metal enclosure is designed with portability in mind, featuring a slim profile of only 9 mm in height. Its internal components are resistant to both shock and vibration, providing durability during mobile use. System compatibility includes Windows 10 and macOS 11 or later, allowing for broad utility across different hardware platforms. A dedicated USB-C cable is included in the package to ensure the device is functional immediately upon connection to a compatible computer.
