My Passport Ultra by Western Digital: The Ideal Mobile Hard Drive to Store Precious Memories!

 

When in Manila and running out of storage space for your movies, mp3s and precious photos, here’s what I personally recommend- My Passport Ultra by Western Digital. I recently heard about this from a friend and didn’t have 2nd thoughts in having one.

 

Choosing a good external hard drive has been my problem for the past months. As you know, Frank and I travel frequently and with the hundreds of high resolution photos we take regularly, just imagine how much space it fills my laptop! Deleting precious memories is never an option of course, so the best solution indeed would be additional storage. With the many external hard drives out there, I’ve chosen My Passport Ultra due to its slim sleek unit and kick ass features! I can easily carry it anytime, anywhere! It even comes with a pouch to protect it from scratches when placed in my bag. I got the 500GB for now and I only paid for less that P4,000!! 

 

My Passport Ultra: slim, sleek with kick ass features!!

Now, I don’t have to worry on where to store our photos!! Hooooray!!

Be sure to store your precious memories well with My Passport Ultra by Western Digital!
