10 TB portable storage for on-the-go backups

This 10 TB drive provides a large-capacity destination for photos, videos and documents while travelling. It connects through a single USB cable and draws power from the host device. The slim profile fits in a laptop bag without adding bulk. It is suited to users who need terabytes of space away from a desk.

Sustained throughput over USB 3.2 Gen 1

Mechanical platters deliver steady sequential rates during long copy jobs rather than brief burst speeds. The USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface keeps the pipeline full for multi-gigabyte transfers. Performance remains consistent across the full 10 TB volume. Thermal throttling is not a factor with this low-power design.

Plug-and-play setup with optional encryption

The drive mounts automatically on Windows 10 and 8.1 formatted as NTFS; other systems may require reformatting before use. WD Discovery software enables password protection and 256-bit AES hardware encryption with a few clicks. Common issues arise only if the cable is seated loosely or the host port supplies insufficient current.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the 10 TB My Passport produce when left running all day?

The drive has no fan and uses a 2.5-inch mechanism inside a slim 0.75-inch enclosure, so it runs silently and stays barely warm during continuous operation.

What do I already need to use the USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection on this drive?

A host with a USB-A or USB-C port that supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 or USB 2.0, plus the supplied SuperSpeed cable.

Will the NTFS formatting on this 10 TB drive work straight away with my older Windows 8.1 laptop?

Yes — it ships formatted NTFS for Windows 10 and 8.1, so the older laptop will recognise it immediately without reformatting.
