too but couldn’t figure out any difference except for the sizes. Thank you! I spent loads of time and trawled through all the specs, PDFs, etc. At present, the new My Passport is a tad less expensive than last years My Passport Essential SE.Īnd I signed up just to thank you for your reply. Again, I compared all the specs I could find, however there may be some other important differences that I might have missed or overlooked. I would like to hear what qualified individuals might have to say about all of this because I could be totally wrong. My take on all of this is that WD released what seems to be new and improved versions when in fact all they really wanted is a way to market and introduce the 2TB version. I recently bought, and not yet recieved, a _ WD My Passport Essential SE _ thinking that it was the latest 2012 model, but I was relieved when I discoverd that the 2011 and the 2012 are different only by outward design and appearence- their size and weight is nominal at best. I wish WD would be a lot more clear and up front about the differences(if any) on their product pages for these two portable models. I joined this forum primarily to answer your question because I know how difficult it was for me to find out the differences, and I spent a lot of my time poking around to do so.
So, to sum up, the 2011 My Passport Essential and the 2012 My Passport portables are basically the same, other than their outer appearance, and that the newest 2012 My Passport model is available in an impressive 2TB version.
