## Description

Product Description desertcart Basics Small Hard Shell Carrying Case for My Passport Essential External Hard Drive From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: !!!!!!!!!!! A GREAT CASE AT AN UNBEATABLE PRICE !!!!!!!!! EXCELLENT PROTECTIONS FOR PORTABLE HDDs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - I have multiple external hard-drives, some of them are bulky and are meant to keep a backup at home. Some of them are smaller ones which I use to carry my photos and other files around with me while I am traveling or transporting data between home and office. Two of them are small 1TB and 2TB USB3.0 hard-drives. I wanted to buy a case for them. After considering a lot of hard and soft cases from various sellers, I stumbled upon this and thought of giving it a try. And it was a wise decision !!! As I always say, desertcart Basics items are equivalent (if not better) to quality in other comparable items from different manufacturers and yet they are available at almost half the price (and sometimes even lesser than that). I have many of the desertcart Basics items and I am not unhappy with any of them. And this is no exception. A few good things: 1. The exterior is pretty hard and you can rest assured that your HDD will be protected even if this case is buried deep down in the luggage. 2. Soft interior makes sure that the HDD stays safe even if there is some pressure on it from other items in the luggage. 3. This case is made for HDD which do not require an external power because there is not much space inside for any adapter. However, there is a mesh pocket which can be used to store the USB cod safely. 4.Even if its hard and durable, the case is pretty light-weight and wont ad much weight to your luggage. 5. Although its advertised for Western Digital My Passport but it can be used to store other USB powered HDDs which are up to 5 inches in dimension. I have one of these for my Seagate 1 TB HDD. 6. It also has an elastic band to hold the HDD securely in the case while in use. 7. The zipper is of very good quality and will not fail on you anytime soon. Cons: The only disadvantage I can think of this case is that there is none. If I have to count one, I would say it would have been better had they made a small zipper pocket inside the case (which would be of great use to photographers like me to also store their memory cards in it while on a trip. All in all, this is an excellent case at excellent price. desertcartBASICS DOES IT AGAIN !!!!!
Review: Excellent Carrying Case For The WG Passport - Is a Great Value. - I've really gotten to like the desertcart Basics line of peripherals. As a quick example we needed a few HDMI cables for different applications, I have always in the past chosen Monster Cables although have always taken that micro thin gold plating as more of marketing ploy than a true benefit albeit perhaps for the most die hard audiophile. The Monster Cables in the size we needed are sold at places like Best Buy between $69 and $89 - desertcart Basics cables a mere $9.99, it was a no brainer. The cables are excellent, not a single problem and no compromise in audio or video whatsoever. This case is no exception - just perfect for you're Passport. I ordered the 2 TB in black and saw this case pop up on the lower part of the buy page and figured we;;, that makes sense - I hadn't thought about a case. The case itself fits the My Passport perfectly and it's surprisingly well made. A tight outer Nylon shell that looks and feels like Neoprene, sturdy coasted zipper with an desertcart Logo rubber pull and close tab is a nice little touch. Inside there's plenty of room for room the Passport which is held securely in place by a wide elastic easy to slide into band - a mesh pocket on the other holds your USB cable and a few other small items if you need it too. Remember the case is not a "Hard Shell" but it's robust enough to protect your Passport, the cable and a few other items from both the elements and with fingers crossed an unfortunate drop. It's great for when your on the run, need to grab your grab you external drive in hurry and go! It's fit in oversized pockets and I would imagine any briefcase, shoulder bag or Lap Top carrying bag with ease. As for the desertcart Basics Packaging - I'm a fan. Less crap in our landfills, easy to open and you still get every single item and all instructions, paper - works etc that you would in retail packaging. What is more, to those of you who can emphasis with how much I despise those hermetically sealed heavy duty clamshell packages which you need the "JAWS OF LIFE" to one get open and two - not cut yourself this is major improvement. Great Case, Under 6 bucks! PRIME membership gives you two day free shipping, simply a terrific value.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it fit the WD My Passport Ultra 2TB Portable External Hard Drive (WDBMWV0020BBK-NESN) ?**
A: Reading the product dimensions on the 2 TB Ultra, it should fit.  The inside dimensions on the case is 4.75 x 3.75.  Thickness would not be an issue.

**Q: Does this fit the WD My Passport 1TB?**
A: Yes, it does. Mine fits perfectly

**Q: Does this fit the Toshiba Canvio Connect 2TB Portable Hard Drive?**
A: Unlike many reviewers, I'll have to disagree about fit. Sure the Canvio fits inside this. It would fit inside a Mack truck too. Point is, there's TOO MUCH room in this case, so the drive just bangs around inside, when dropped, the drive accelerates a bit before stopping once the case hits the ground. NOT good for a hard drive. I want a snug fit on my drive and this isn't it, too much room inside this case.

**Q: will this fit the 4tb**
A: It fit my western digital 4tb drive just fine. Not a lot of wiggle room and you have to be careful how you lay the cord in the case but I have bought about 6 of these for my hard drives and all the cases have lasted and survived consistent use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Little Case!
*by S***R on October 17, 2019*

The AmazonBasics Small Hard Shell Carrying Case is quite the bargain! I purchased a Western Digital 2TB MyPassport External Hard Drive. I'm willing to pay more for the HD than for what's housing it. The AmazonBasics case was extremely well-priced, and it was made specifically for holding the HD that I was getting. Into my virtual cart it went. I couldn't be happier with this case! If you look at my photos, you'll see that I was easily able to place my HD in one side of the case. It is securely held in by a piece of elastic that reaches from side to side. The elastic measures about 4" across and 1" wide. My HD did not have to be "forced" in; it sits recessed into the side of the case without protruding. On the other half of the case there is a mesh pocket measuring roughly 4" across and 4" top to bottom. I had no problem fitting my HD's user manual, the cable, AND 3 USB flash drives inside this pocket. All of these things fit inside the AmazonBasics case. The case holds everything in place, and is not "over-filled" or hard to close. This case features a zip around closure. I was a bit concerned with this, because initially, the zipper felt a bit tight. I felt that it would snap right off if I didn't exercise some caution. I suggest that you be careful not to pull too hard on the zipper, or try to carry more inside of it than it is intended for. After some time, the rigidity I felt from the zipper began to soften, and now it is perfect. I guess it merely needed to be "worked-in" a little, like a pair of shoes. This AmazonBasics case is not waterproof. It is not bulletproof. It probably won't withstand being in a blast zone, or being tossed from a trans-Atlantic airplane, mid-flight. This case is not DB Cooper. It's implied that you, the consumer, take CARE of your tech and treat it carefully to BEGIN with. You should treat your HD and other tech as though it were not encased, even though it is. With this in mind, the AmazonBasics case is very affordable, and if used mindfully, will protect your HD without a hitch.
