WEBVTT 00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:08.960 So here I am with the My Passport Elite and this is different from the My Book 00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:12.880 Elite because it is smaller. So you can see the actual package for the My 00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:17.279 Passport which is a 2 and 1/2 in drive is actually about the same size as the 00:00:14.639 --> 00:00:21.680 entire My Pass My Oh man, this is going to confuse me. My Book Elite that we had 00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:25.439 a look at a little while ago. So this is an ultra portable hard drive with a USB 00:00:23.680 --> 00:00:28.320 dock. It is a premium backup and storage, which means that it has their 00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:32.320 their premium backup and storage software. It has all the same sort of 00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:36.640 things here. So, it has a three-year limited warranty. It has a drive space 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:40.079 indicator, which is pretty cool. It is secure. I I don't know what this means. 00:00:38.559 --> 00:00:44.960 I'm guessing they think it's like intelligent or something. That would be 00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:52.640 my guess. It stores up to 38 hours of HD footage, 80,000 MP3s or 64,000 JPEGs. 00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:56.399 So, this is a 320 gig drive. Obviously, the 2 and 1/2 in ones are available in 00:00:54.559 --> 00:00:59.600 smaller capacities than the 3 and 1/2 in ones. This is all stuff that we're going 00:00:58.239 --> 00:01:04.159 to see when we actually open the box. So, why don't we have a look at the back? Automatic continuous backup. 00:01:02.879 --> 00:01:09.920 Whenever you add or change a file, it's backed up on the spot. That's pretty cool. It has a drive lock, password 00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:13.439 protection with 256-bit hardware encryption. It has an illuminated 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:17.320 capacity gauge. See at a glance how much space is left on your drive, and it has 00:01:15.520 --> 00:01:23.360 convenient one-hand connection to your computer. One hand connection. That is a 00:01:21.119 --> 00:01:27.920 feature that I can't imagine myself needing, but for like my mother, that 00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:30.600 would be really good because like connecting things to computers is not 00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:35.520 her forte. And uh like not like the 00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:39.920 commercials where she has a Kiaforte and that's her forte, but like not her 00:01:37.360 --> 00:01:43.840 forte. Like she's really bad at it. If she ever watches this, she's going to 00:01:41.360 --> 00:01:47.439 totally rage at me, too. All right, here we go. So, we have the drive itself 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:52.159 comes out first. We'll have a look at that in a moment. Then we have some 00:01:49.960 --> 00:01:56.159 documentation. So, important note to Windows users. Um, it tells you how to 00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:00.479 install the software, which we actually covered in the My Book Elite uh 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:04.560 unboxing. No, that wasn't in the unboxing. That was in the how to set it 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:10.479 up video. Then it comes with a little guide that 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:12.720 is two steps really. That's it, huh? 00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:18.319 Well, there you go. So, you plug in the USB cable and then you run the software. 00:02:16.959 --> 00:02:23.440 That was easy. Okay. Then we have the 300 million 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:28.800 language technical support and limited warranty guide, which is about the size 00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:34.160 of your typical wall poster. Oh, no. This one isn't as big. Wow. Okay. It 00:02:31.920 --> 00:02:38.599 still has this graph, though. I want to know what that is. Okay. That's not 00:02:36.640 --> 00:02:42.360 that's not there in the English version. So, there we 00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:47.560 go. Uh, I'll figure out how to fold that 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:50.480 back up off camera. Then we have a USB 00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:56.080 cable. So this is just a straight USBA to mini 00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:57.840 cable. Then we have a USB dock cable. 00:02:56.080 --> 00:03:01.760 Cameraman wants to look at the cable. All right. Here you go. You happy now? 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:05.360 You can see the cable. It's about this long. Yeah. You can't see that. Oh, and 00:03:03.920 --> 00:03:08.840 now I took it away. Okay, I'm kidding. Now you can see how long it is. Fine. 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:13.440 All right. Then the dot cable is actually 00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:17.120 quite a bit longer. So you can see this one is designed more to uh reach around 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:21.519 to the back of your computer and then sit up on your desk kind of thing. So 00:03:20.239 --> 00:03:25.680 all right, why don't we have a look at the drive itself because that's what you 00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:30.480 folks all paid good money to see is the My Passport Elite. So there it is. Oh, 00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:34.560 that's quite slick. It's uh very small as you would expect from a 2 and 12 in 00:03:32.239 --> 00:03:38.319 drive. It's got a silvery WD logo on the front. Then on this side there is 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:43.040 nothing. And on this side there is nothing. And oh no, that's a USB port. 00:03:41.200 --> 00:03:47.280 Sorry, that isn't nothing. And then on this side, there is nothing. And on this 00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:52.799 side, there is an illuminated capacity LED as well as a little lock um light 00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:57.360 and then a power indicator as probably an activity LED as well. On the back, it 00:03:55.200 --> 00:04:01.120 is labeled my passport. And then there is a serial number and a part number. 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:04.560 So, it's got four little rubberized feet. So, if you're using it on your 00:04:02.720 --> 00:04:07.599 desk, you don't actually have to balance it this way. You can just put it down 00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:12.200 like this. And then if you're using it with the dock, you can see the dock is 00:04:09.920 --> 00:04:16.720 just a USB port. So you just go like this and plug it in that 00:04:17.400 --> 00:04:22.320 way. See, it's funny because I was saying my mom isn't good at plugging 00:04:20.880 --> 00:04:26.000 things in, but then now you look at me trying to do it, it's hard. Oh, I get 00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:31.199 it. It's because it goes in at like an angle. It doesn't actually sit like 00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:36.240 flat. So it doesn't go in like this straight in. It actually like kind of 00:04:33.919 --> 00:04:40.160 slides in at sort of this angle there. There. Now I've got it figured out. And 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:44.160 why don't we have a look at that from a different angle? Okay, I guess that 00:04:42.960 --> 00:04:49.639 pretty much covers it. That's my unboxing of the My Passport Elite.
