"The device that securely holds your content should be just as personal. Having listened to our customers, we are expanding the options available on our WD Passport family of personal storage devices with more features, content management functions and fashionable design."

It features plug-and-play capability with gaming consoles to make it easy to play music and view photos and video files on a TV.
