WD 6TB My Passport portable hard drive hits its lowest price

If you are in the market for an external hard drive, check out this deal on the WD 6TB My Passport Portable External Hard Drive. Right now, thanks to a limited-time deal, you can pick this product up for just $149.99, 17% off its list price of $179.99. This is also the lowest price this external hard drive has been at on Amazon (well, the blue one anyway), making it a very good time to buy.

The drive is compatible with both USB 3.1 and USB 3.0, so it should work on most computers you plug it into. It also comes with a USB-A 5Gbps cable, so you don't need to supply your own. The drive uses a 2.5-inch hard drive; do take note that it is a hard drive, which means its speeds will be lower than those of an SSD.

Out of the box, this drive is only compatible with Windows; however, you can reformat it to work with macOS and other operating systems (though these may not support advanced features provided by WD). It also has password protection with 256-bit AES hardware encryption to keep your files safe against unauthorized access.

The WD My Passport has a slim, durable, and highly portable form factor and a weight of around 7.36 ounces, making it easy to carry around on the go. It also includes Acronis True Image for Western Digital, which allows you to do scheduled backups and defend against ransomware.

This external hard drive is shipped directly from Amazon and is covered by Amazon's refund or replacement policy until January 31, 2026, just in case you have issues with it. If you want to go bigger than 6TB, be sure to check out these deals on the WD Elements hard drives.
