Don't forget to perform Extended SMART test
By Karan Mohadkaron
(Refer Cons for a very important thing to perform on these HDD as soon as you receive them though that test would take about 11-12 Hours but you will be sure your Data is safe)Update: Empty/Brand-New HDD with no data should take only about 4 Hours for test to complete (1 Hour per 1TB), if HDD is completely full(data) then it would take about 11-12 hours to complete the test.Would suggest to run test after filling it up completely.Also, don't move the HDD while its running and dropping it from height can damage it .. Head could hit the platter leading to Physical Bad Sectors and Data Loss. (Minor Safety Measures)Pros:1. Transfer Rates (About 115 MB/s Reads and about 90-110 MB/s Write Speeds | Also reads/writes depends on how data is on the HDD Fragmented or Defragmented)2. Looks Good from outside3. Capacity of about 3.63 TB Usable.4. Cheapest option in India if you want to store large amount of data at a low price/don't want an Internal Drives/NAS Drives which you can access anytime, factors why would you prefer this over NAS/Internals: Power outages & you don't have power backup(assuming you have a laptop), want to save 2-3k INR.(You can buy a number of these)5. 3 years Warranty from the Date of purchase (Make sure to head to the WD website and register you product)Cons:- I wanted to give this My Passport HDD a 2 Star, but cannot let my personal experience to affect this drive.... (But don't know if its just me with this kind of unfortunate experience)- I Bought two 4TB WD My Passports from Amazon in a span of 2 months...- And it took me about 1 Month 26 Days to fill up 4TB..- After which i realized one of my HDD had Bad Sectors... and i lost about 64GB of data due to it- And then while i was creating a RMA on WD Website...- I thought lets run the SMART Extended Test on my another healthy My Passport HDD and i was suprised my 2nd HDD had Bad Sectors as wellHow to perform this Test which checks for Bad Sectors/Phyically Damaged Sectors:1. Download :Western Digital Data Lifeguard Diagnostic from WD Website2. Install, Connect your My Passport HDD, Launch the program.3. Double click(left click) your My Passport Drive from the list of drives.4. A Menu pops-up, Click Extended Test. Another pop-up will appear Click OK. ( Make sure no program is using your My Passport HDD)5. Let it run would take about 11-12 Hours to complete and if it finds too many Bad Sectors Program will abort with error.(If you have some different error you can google "Data Lifeguard Diagnostics Error Code List" and find what kind of error you are getting..)6. If It aborts you know you need to Return the drive or you need to get it replaced under warranty.
Caution ? before Use. Best Hard disk.
By John zachon
Better and cost effective hard disk for your personal data storage.Initially when I recieved hard disk it was not detectable and after troubleshooting also no luck.I reached out to Amazon who was helpful and given replacement device.Many reviews helped a lot and I have done wd diagnostic test for bad sector and quick performance test.In device 3.64 TB storage is available and size is compact.Lucky that I got it in deal and price factor is very good.Please watch out your personal device and do all the diagnostic to make sure it's all correct.That tool is available online and it comes in installable application in hard disk also.Hope it would help someone in need. I'm sharing old package which received earlier. But later package is very good and no issues after test.
Nice HDD. Have been much happy with WD HDDs ...
By Sasi Kumaron
Nice HDD. Have been much happy with WD HDDs and have been using them since many years. Reliable and no hassles till date
Very Quick Delivery
By Ek Sadharan Manushyaon
Delivery was very fast, the product was delivered in the evening next day before the expected delivery date.Drive is good.USB 3 means fast speed.Cons:It gets heated up when used continuously for some time. A well cooled room is expected preferably an AC one.
Grap this when on deal , bought for 9499
By Karthion
Must have , super speeds . super handy , super small ,super cool
Good space, good looks
By Amazon Customeron
Good space, good looks, good connection, not very quick but does the job. however, sometimes it does not get recognized and you gotta do a thing in your control panel ("add new device" after which it suddenly gets recognized).
Good for Backups when used with USB 3
By Gaurav Prabhuon
A decent drive to backup your data. Offers speed upto 90mb/s when used with a USB 3.0 port. The casing is plastic so it is surely not rugged. I would recommend this only to those who want to take backups and store the drive away safely with less transportation. Better to get a hard case for storage and transportation. The red colour looks refreshing. The bundled cable is short like what most offer.
Well designed n trendy HDD
By Asiton
Small n slick in size. Looking trendy. Till now working smooth. Max write throughout 100MB/second and average 25MB/s for small files. Got 3yrs warranty confirmation mail after registering thru WD config app installed in my laptop. Overall Good experience on 2days delivery.
not working anymore
By Gpon
didn't last even a year even though it claims to be shock tolerant etc and data recovery from partners too costly.
Works flawlessly with MacBook Pro and Dell Inspiron
By KTon
Perfect for Mac's Time Machine Backups and File storage. Did two partitions of 1GB each:Formatted Time Machine backup partition as Mac OS Extended andFile Storage partition as ExFAT so that it can work on the both Mac OS as well as Windows.
Good product
By Rajon
I decided to upgrade from 3 tb to 4 tb.. And this was the best choice considering value for money.
Can't be formatted in ExFat format.
By Pandava86on
Can work either with windows in NTFS format or with Mac in ExFat format.
Constrained !!!

Unsatisfactory
By Sri ramon
80% discount on HDD but the cost is 4500 and at normal times cost is 4300 right?... Have some knowledge people in flipkart... Offer doesn't mean increasing the cost...
Very poor
By Chaitanya Bhajeon
Guys its my humble request to u that dont buy any of the product from OMSHAKTI . A big fraud. Its my 2nd time to recieve wrong product...... Juss read the reviews before buying.
Terrific purchase
By Alan Joseon
Very good product.you get a backup softward
Just wow!
By Manas Kumaron
This is my first WD hard disk...and it's awesome.
Bought 1TB one.
First of all thanks to flipkart for early delivery but disappointed because of moderate packaging. After that coming to product.
At first time for 4-5 times the write and read speed was very less about 40 MBps and I thought that the product is damaged but after that the speed just went on.
Read Speed- 100-150 MBps
Write speed- 70-90 MBps
Using USB 3.0
Not checked with USB 2.0.
Why use 2.0 when you have 3.0.
The product is awesome.
Look and feel is very good.
But it has half side which can get easily scatched.
Otherwise the product is very good and suggest it to all.
Worst Delivery Boy
By Gaurang Trivedion
Product is awesome but i give 1 star because of the delivery. I got the delivery on time but at morning i got he call from
flipkart regarding delivery but i said that i am not available at home so please deliver to my home address and handover any of my
person available a home and delivery is accepted by my wife and he's started flirting with her and after that he took delivery sign and mobile number and my wife sign in their device and give my number(My registered mobile number from which i ordered) and he said that please give your number you have to give your number and he's forcing my wife to give her number.
Really ugly incident i must say, today he's asking for number may be tomorrow he can be do anything.
Worst delivery :(
Thanks
