WD My Passport

Western Digital (WD) is adding a new storage size option for fans of its My Passport Portable USB Drives. The new storage size is 500GB and you’ll be able to purchase My Passport Elite and My Passport Essential portable drive models for around $220 and $200, respectively.

WD says these new drives weigh less than seven ounces and are somewhat durable. They are USB-bus powered, use synchronization software which lets users sync their changes and offer plug-and-play capability with gaming consoles so one can play music and view photos and video files on a TV.

The Passport Elite, in a step up from the Essential, also has a capacity gauge to display at a glance how much storage space is available and also automatic backup software, among other features. The 500GB storage size for these drives is available now.
