USB-C means no dongle is required
Most computers these days at least have a single USB-C port, while some have only USB-C. Well, either way, WD’s My Passport SSD will work thanks to its USB 3.2 Gen 1 USB-C connection. This delivers both Windows and macOS compatibility without a dongle required. It’s even compatible with the latest iPad models (that have USB-C ports) and should work just fine with Chromebook as well, though formatting may be required here. However, if you have a legacy device that doesn’t have USB-C, then WD includes a USB-A adapter so you can be up and going as soon as it arrives, no further purchases required.

This means you’ll be able to get more work done in less time, so you can spend more precious moments with family and less behind a computer screen.
