welcome to my unboxing and first look at the My Passport edge for Mac but don't hit that dislike button yet I actually don't have a good reason for you not hit the dislike button you know what if you want to show Apple who's boss you know you really want to stick it to Tim Cook for having the audacity to you know release products that are Apple branded and for other companies to you know what go ahead just like this video go ahead so take a second right now press dislike on the video it'll be worth it you will get the satisfaction that comes from sticking it to the man because I actually don't care if you dislike the video I'm it's still YouTube bum where are they called interactions or engagement it's still engagement I don't care just like the video go for it so moving right along the contents are portable hard drive a USB cable WD Security WD idea WD drive utilities and a quick install guide the compatibility it is formatted HFS+ journaled for Mac OS 10 lion or mountain lion requires reformatting for Windows OS so yes this is a Mac Drive Apple drive formatted for Apple and it's nice why is it that the PC drive is always like see I'm good where is the PC Drive where's the PC version it's around here somewhere there it is okay so explain this to me why do the Apple guys get all the cool stuff see look at this here's for my passport edge like for PC this is the NTFS formatted one its plastic see look at how nice this one is this is an aluminum casing it's even isn't even thinner it's better see you look it's thinner it's thinner it's metal it's like sexy so you look at that anodized finish on there and then the it's like two-tone metal they did a dark anodization for the top it overlaps down here on the USB 3 interface huffs thinks amazing and this is this is okay anyway I'm not gonna be I'm not going to be angry about this because the good news is even if you're a PC guy you can still buy this and you can use it with your PC and you can not use it with Apple Time Machine which it does happen to be compatible with for backing up your Mac it can also backup your PC though hardware encryption with password protection keeps your data private so that's a really good thing as well and not dependent on using it on an Apple it is slimmer the image is not actual size although I don't understand for the life of me why they couldn't have put an image that's the actual size they're ultra slim all-metal password encryption and I think that pretty much covers it so there's also an included USB 3 cable which will work in the USB 2 mode no problem whatsoever we're gonna go ahead and plug that in in spite of the fact that Apple didn't even deem it necessary to implement USB 3 in tellurian latest generation of products you know we've had USB 3 on the PC for a long time damn it's a hard drive thank you for checking out my unboxing and first look at the my passport edge for Mac from Western Digital don't forget to subscribe please tech tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos if you look at them look at this the Western Digital logo on this one is just silk-screened see it has no texture to it at all Western Digital logo on this is actually like embossed it's like a it's like a textured like metallic thinning on top of it
