When you plug it into your mac it will auto configure for mac. However it will only work on mac after that unless you format it to fat32. I did that with mine and it works with my mac, PC, and smart tv. I use it to store movies and with fat32 formatting all my friends can use it on their computers. However with fat 32 formatting you can't store files larger than 4 gb. Hope this helps. **Q: Can this external HD backup files for more than one computer if done manually?** A: Yes it certainly can. Just use its usb cable to connect any computer you wish to back up and then transfer your desired files **Q: Ad say's $41.99 click on ad to cart comes up $69.00 what up ????** A: does this drive work with windows xp? **Q: I have an old desktop with measly USB 1.0 slots. Is this hard drive that backwards compatible?** A: it is backwards compatible, but its speed will be limited severly due to old usb 1.0 or usb 1.1 standards. if u have old pc, try to get at least a usb 2.0 port on it since usb 1.0 and 1.1 are both slow, but if you dont mind the long wait its up to you. To give you an idea about the speeds Usb 1.1 is around 1.5mb/s, usb 2.0 is around 20-30mb/s and usb 3.0 should be at least 60mb/s. ## Frequently Bought Together - WD My Passport 500GB Portable External Hard Drive Storage USB 3.0 Black (WDBKXH5000ABK-NESN) - Seagate Portable 2TB External Hard Drive HDD — USB 3.0 for PC, Mac, PlayStation, & Xbox -1-Year Rescue Service (STGX2000400) - Western Digital 8TB My Book Desktop External Hard Drive, USB 3.0, External HDD with Password Protection and Backup Software - WDBBGB0080HBK-NESN --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/947530-wd-my-passport-500gb-portable-external-hard-drive-storage-usb](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/947530-wd-my-passport-500gb-portable-external-hard-drive-storage-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
