Major features of the My Passport for Mac drive include:
Smaller, sleeker, more streamlined design—We've designed a smaller, high-quality
integrated USB hard drive inside a stylish package in a variety of fun colors.
WD Security software—Gain peace of mind knowing that your data is protected from
unauthorized access or theft with password protection and 256-bit hardware-based
encryption.
WD Drive Utilities software—Keep your drive performing at its best by running
diagnostics, managing the power settings, and more.
USB 2.0 interface—A simple connection that offers convenience and compatibility
among multiple computers.
Power miser—My Passport portable drives are designed to save energy.
WD GreenPower Technology™ lowers internal drive power consumption by up to 30%,
a sleep mode reduces power during idle times, and a power-saving feature turns the
drive on and off with your computer.
Planet friendly—We designed a small box from recycled materials to minimize waste.
We encourage you to recycle it.
Ready to plug-and-play with Mac computers—HFS+J-formatted for compatibility
with Mac OS X operating systems
