I haven't tried yet. I'll do it tonight and tell you. I guess so if you have the adapter. But it works perfectly with other models,

Updated: If you're looking for GPS capability then Passport Max is for you.

I a very non-techy person; so here is all that I can tell you. I use it with Express Scribe. I get many questions about te USB Digital foot petal (which puts the voice forward/backward, stop, go, and speed choices. I feel that perhaps Amazon needs to now more about it so that they can answer all the questions. Sorry, just don't know what or how the digital recorder works.

These drives work fine on Vista. I'm using two on my Vista machine at home. Out of curiosity did the Passport click and turn on and off? I have had that issue with my Passports (80gb and 250gb) on a few computers and it's usually fixed by using a powered hub, a shorter/different USB cable or unplugging all other USB devices connected to the same USB controller. The Passports seem to want the full 5v from the USB port and they will wig out if they don't get it.

Yes, I do it all the time. I also have a 150 Passport. I have a cord with an adaptor that feeds out of my laptop earphone jack and then into plugs on the Passport. The 150 has different plugs than the 300. Don't know where you live, but you can take your laptop and Passport to a Frye's or Altex store and they can help you. Check out the Altex website ... they have every kind of cable and adaptor possible.

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.

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.

It is compatible with all the WD My passports except the WD my book. cheers!

Yes. It comes with a USB 3.0 cord - which is nice because it allows this high speed scanner to push all of the data through the cord quickly. USB 3.0 is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 if you do not have a USB 3.0 port on your computer.

The WD passport only works with USB 3.0 that's it and is very useful easy to backup and very fast the data transference. This WD Passport doesn't works like a WIFI cloud at your home

It will work on anything, but remember USB 3 is where the speed is. Why not get a Western Digital My PassportUltra. It's also USB 3 but it's usb powered so you could move easily between computers.

Passport does not fit in slot, too thick. Other than that, it as good little copier. Fairly fast and easy to use. Very happy with it.

I think you can use the same cable, however mount is different for passport.
