WD My Passport 5TB Portable Hard Drive (Encrypted)

High-capacity portable storage with built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption.

5TB USB 3.2 Gen 1 256-bit AES Bus-Powered

The WD My Passport, part number WDBPKJ0050BBK-WESN, is a 5TB 2.5-inch portable external hard drive with a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface and built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption, built for secure, high-capacity backups you can carry anywhere. It fits in the palm of your hand, is bus-powered over a single USB cable, and pairs with WD Backup, WD Security, WD Drive Utilities and WD Discovery software for automatic backups and password protection. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus. It sits between the plain WD Elements, which has no encryption or software, and the desktop WD My Book, which offers even higher capacity but needs mains power and stays on your desk.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the WD My Passport work with a Mac?

It ships preformatted in NTFS for Windows. It is Apple Time Machine compatible after reformatting for macOS, which erases existing data. There is also a dedicated My Passport for Mac variant if you prefer one ready for macOS out of the box.

How does the encryption and password work?

The drive has built-in 256-bit AES hardware encryption. Using the included WD Security software you set a personal password to lock the drive, so your files stay private if it is lost or stolen. Keep the password safe — without it the data cannot be unlocked.

What is the difference between My Passport and WD Elements?

My Passport adds 256-bit AES hardware encryption, password protection and WD backup software in a bus-powered portable drive. WD Elements is plainer and cheaper with no encryption or software. Both are 2.5-inch USB portable hard drives.

What do I need to know before buying?

It is a mechanical 2.5-inch portable hard drive (not an SSD), and at 5TB it is a little thicker than lower-capacity models. It is bus-powered, supplied in black and Windows-formatted. Remember your encryption password, as locked data cannot be recovered without it. Typically in stock with fast delivery across Cyprus.

Singular Expert Insight

If you carry a lot of data and care about privacy, the My Passport is the sensible pick over a plain Elements drive — the built-in hardware encryption and password protection cost little extra and protect you if the drive is lost, and 5TB gives plenty of headroom for media libraries. Just treat the password as important: WD cannot recover encrypted data without it, so store it safely and keep a second backup of anything critical. Choose the desktop My Book instead when you want maximum capacity at the lowest cost per TB, or a portable SSD when transfer speed and drop-resistance matter more than price.

Buyer’s Guide

Buy it if

You want high-capacity 5TB portable backup with password protection and 256-bit AES hardware encryption, plus WD software.

Skip it if

You do not need encryption (Elements is cheaper), need SSD-class speed, or want the lowest cost per TB (My Book).

Also consider

WD Elements for plain portable storage, WD My Book for desktop capacity, or a portable SSD for speed.
