WD My Passport deals come fairly regularly, which is great if you're looking for a new external hard drive because the standard retail prices can be very high. Western Digital's My Passport is the company's best-known range of external hard drives, especially among creatives. They're compact and portable but reach massive storage capacities. Whether you're looking for a secure home for hefty RAW photo files, your music and film library or precious work files, it makes some top-draw HDDs and SSDs. 

In this guide, you'll find a selection external hard drives that often come in for the best WD My Passport deals. Choosing which is best for you will depend on how much capacity you need and how much you want to pay – and whether you're prepared to pay more for a faster SSD over an HDD. You can read more about the difference at the end of the article, but you'll see that a 1TB SSD can cost as much as a 4TB HDD. We'll cover both types of drive in the guide below, and while we've suggested the best value capacities for each, you'll find that other capacity options are available if you follow the links to retailers' sites.
