Can this be used with a WD My Passport Ultra hard drive? If it can what other cables or devices might I need?

I have a droid turbo and it plugs in the same place where I charge my phone I know it's compatible with all Android devices I use it to download pictures from my SD and micro SD cards.I know whatever is on those cards when you plug it in it will read it and display it

First ... Save your contents to a microSD card, and then on to a devise that can store the contents for copying onto your WD devise? ... You know ... Save it on a computer and then save it as you would onto your WD devise? ... Something like that ... You shouldn't need anyother cables other than what you probably have? ... Good Luck ... TEd ...

I used it with a Seagate FreeAgent device and it worked. I have not had a need to use it on a Western Digital, sorry.

I only know it works good on my old Samsung drive but will not work on my WD drive, WD requires some kind of support software that is not available.You are on your own with the Seagate.

I don't know what the WD hard drive calls for but I doubt it. This has the "micro" USB plug on one end, which is smaller than most external hard drives I've used have.

MANUFACTURER RESPONSE: As long as your hard drive is not USB powered, you should be fine. Please take note that you may experience slower transfer speeds than normal over this cable.

Thank you for your interest in our products. No that will not work with this external drive.

I don't know about WD. It works with a SeaGate external desktop HD that I use for my Time Machine backup.

I don't know about. WD Passport but I have 3 WD My Books that are working very well with Plugable.

I don't know. I purchased the Roll over image to zoom in WD My Passport 500GB Portable External Hard Drive Storage USB 3.0 Blue (WDBKXH5000ABL-NESN) and it fits perfectly. You'll have to compare dimensions. The case however is a 10 out of 10 for my needs.

Yes, but honestly I wouldn't recommend it. Having a drive fail on that setup would kill you and the interface that your presented with on this device really limits the usability of anything over 2tb

Not sure what I did wrong. But I plug this to my PC USB 3.0 port, then plug WD My Passport Slim 2TB Portable HD to it and the PC didn't recognize the HD. Plugging HD straight to PC USB port works.

Yes it will very nicely. I have 6 of these for all my WD passport drives. Perfect and compact, sturdy protection and storage for your cable.

Im not sure. But i do not recommend this one. I put so much info on it and one day it just wouldnt work. It woukd spin but no lights or anything on the screen. Had to pay 50$ to get the files off if it. I say spend that extra 50 now and buy a WD passport. Works like a charm.

BW: Unlikely...or at least not the way you'd want. If your WD Passport is configured / designed as a USB 2.0 device, attaching a USB 3.0 cable is not going to get you USB speeds. USB 3.0 is designed to be backwards compatible (with 2.0 and 1.x). The earlier versions of USB are not 'forward' compatible (in that the data throughput would be increased just because the cable was upgraded). Oh yes, did I mention the potential compatibility problem with the physical design of the plugs themselves? Even if you were to find (or make) an adapter plug, you're still up against the USB 2.x design not accepting the USB 3.0 data rates. BW: Unlikely...or at least not the way you'd want.

It depends on the device you have. What device are you using with this drive?

As this is made for the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex it has a cable with USB connections and an adapter to SATA. The Western Digital Passport has Mini USB, but the model called My Passports looks like it has the same flat USB 3.0 socket, so in that case you just need this. http://amzn.com/B005K6G7BU

I have not tied that specific drive but used Western Digital 500 gb, Acomdata 120 gb and some USB thumb drives. Everything worked fine. I think as long as the hard drive can be connected via USB 2.0 it should work.
