The minimalistic design is only broken by the logo and branding on the top, and the USB 3.0 port and maintenance slot (in the form of a pin-sized hole) on the side. The most common variant of the unit is the navy blue we were provided, although you can also pick up the gold or silver variants.
The biggest difference, however, lies in its metal finishing a brushed aluminium with a “radial-spin-design”, which gives it an effect reminiscent of the sun’s rays when light is shone upon it. The Metal Edition measures 80x110x18.8mm, while the (same storage) Ultra version measures 81.6x110x15.4mm. The Metal Edition has the same form factor as its predecessor, the My Passport Ultra, with dimensions differing only slightly. Without actually looking at the unit itself, its name gives a lot away in terms of the overall design and build. Apart from just its read and write speeds, the Metal Edition also has a lot to offer in terms of its design and build. In recent years, with the increased storage space provided on portables, some of the emphasis has been moved from pure performance to looks as well. WD has provided us with the former, the Metal Edition (2TB), for review. To commemorate the success over the decade, WD introduced two new additions to the range, the My Passport Ultra Metal Edition, as well as the My Passport Ultra Anniversary Edition.
