 Whistle Sound of door closing Sound of door closing Sound of door closing Sound of car passing by Sound of car passing by Yeah, that's a hard drive unboxing. Okay, so we've got the WD My Passport Edge portable hard drive. This is a USB 3 or USB 2, which is basically the same thing. Well, the same physical connectors. USB 3 is about 10 times faster, so I shouldn't say it's the same thing. It's ultra slim, has pad backup, and it has password encryption. Well, like, encryption that you can open with a password, rather, not password encryption. Password encryption, this new concept of encryption that involves nothing but passwords. No, encryption is much more complicated than just a password. Because if it was just a password, then you could just take the drive out, put it in something else, and then read all the data off it. WD has thought of that, and they don't want that to happen to you. Or me. I don't know why they care at all, but I... Trolling, trolling, slick, trolling, slick. Don't worry, we'll actually look at the hard drive now. Okay, let's take this out. There we go. Let's have a look at what WD has to say for themselves. This is a 500 gig drive, however, the other capacities will look pretty much the same. Automatic BackWare software. BackWare. Backup software is included whenever you add or change a file. It's instantly backed up. Very cool. WD Security helps protect your files with hardware encryption and password protection to keep your data private. Now, some of you might think, oh, no, it's okay, you know, I, you know, all my data, if I've got nothing to hide, then, you know, it's no big deal. But personally, I would argue that everything is private, even though we upload our entire lives to Facebook. If you didn't upload it to Facebook, it's probably for a reason, so you might as well use something encrypted. The contents are the SmartWare software, the quick install guide, and the things that you see here. There we go. Aha. That's slim. Look at that. It's basically like, like the actual plastic shell on this must not be thicker than like this, because there's basically just like a hard drive in there with four. Oh, those are rubber, too. Look at that. They put the, see, little touches like that. They put the extra money into doing instead of just molding a plastic bump onto it, which actually doesn't do anything because it would just slide around on the table like this, which for hard drives, by the way, is bad. The rubber dots actually keep it from, you know, moving unnecessarily, which is good. OK, there's your USB 3 interface on the back, which goes a little something like this. And then like this. Remember, this plug is compatible with USB 2 and USB 3. Never hold a hard drive like this, by the way. That's sort of terrible. Here. You know, hold it like football. Safe. Encrypted. OK, in the back of the connector, there's additional pins, and then on the front of the connector, there's the USB 2.0 pins. So that's how that works. The software is presumably available for download, although it did say it did say package contents, smartware software. You know, it is probably loaded on the drive, actually. Herder. There's your oh, man, I love this. My passport edge. This is a quick start guide. Plug the thing into the thing, run the thing, and then get updates. Awesome. Download the latest software. Thank you, WD, for validating what I've been saying for years. Don't forget to subscribe for more unboxings, reviews, and other computer videos. And I hope you've enjoyed my unboxing of the My Passport Edge from Western Digital. Wait. Let's see how long we can keep Slick from turning off the camera. How about Nick?
