Q: 1. I'm wanting HDs to use as permanent storage to backup large photos files. Is this a good solution as a HD backup system?

A: The WD 4TB My Passport SSD USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C Portable SSD (Gray) can be used for backing up photos, but for permanent storage, I would recommend a NAS solution like the Synology 8TB DiskStation DS223 2-Bay NAS Enclosure Kit with Seagate IronWolf NAS Drives (2 x 4TB) (B&H # SYDS2238TBK, https://bhpho.to/3V8fQd3), as the photos will be backed up in case a drive fails, and you can also upgrade the storage later on if you need more.

[Plastic] The 4TB My Passport SSD USB3.2 external drive worked as advertised and achieved transfer rates which made system backup of 3TB practical. The drive is remarkably small. The supplied USB 3.2 compliant cable is very short. Since my fastest USB port is on the back of the computer, it was awkward to connect and a bit hard to monitor the temperature of the drive during use. The drive did get warm during use. In summary, this is a wonderful backup device which makes a practical backup system for 3TB of data which can be removed from the computer in-between weekly backups. I am very pleased with the results. 5

[Plastic] Super fast, connected no problem to laptop and then to TV. Just using for storing dvds digitally for easy access, but would recommend for anyone’s portable data needs 5

[4 TB] I was very happy to see that Western Digital was playing in the external SSD Space. Having a 2TB Samsung T7 in the fleet currently as well as a 1TB SanDisk dual thumb drive, among a plethora of external 2.5" drives of varying sizes and models, I thought that I really ought to check this one out. I sized up to the 4TB as my MacBook Pro has only 256 onboard, and I wanted the ability to dump GoPro Max and Hero 10 Videos as well as DSLR Photos and more onto a device and edit straight from there...It took me a bit to get my workflow right, but it has turned out well. This goes with me basically everywhere...may need to velcro it onto my laptop :-) This is price competitive for the size and speeds. It is not especially hardened or durable, but external suds are better than spinning rust. this has withstood a couple air and car trips effortlessly. 5

[Plastic] This is an extremely compact external SSD. Very portable, Fast and Reliable! I specially like the USB-C connection, which has proven to be much more secure and sturdy that other types of connections. 5
