From its name we can already guess, that advantage is taken of thin dimensions (slim). Plus the metal material, in this case aluminum in the body. The available capacity is 1 TB and 2 TB. And discussed at this time is the WD My Passport 1 TB Slim.
Design
Dimensions of the body of the 1 TB My Passport Slim is 110 x 80 x 12.3 mm with a weight of 134 grams. Compared with the ultra series with the same capacity, slim series is thinner. Only about 3 mm. You can not seem to expect much thinner because basically drives contained therein are universally the same all. Only difference is wrapped are made thinner. But certainly the 1 TB My Passport Slim has a simple and minimalist design.
The body no longer uses plastic material, instead of aluminum so it feels solid in the hand. On one side there is a microUSB 3.0 port for wired data available in the sales package. Surely the cable and the drive also supports USB 2.0 ports. the sales package also provides a small bag to store this drive.
Features and Software
You can directly use the My Passport Slim 1 TB by connecting it to a Windows PC. Existing drives formatted NTFS. If you want to connect a PC to a Mac, this drive can read files stored. But can not write, unless you change the format of the drive into HFS + or exFAT. You can change the format of these drives using WD Drive Utilities application contained in the drive, or can use the tool Disk Utility in Mac OS X.

Just like other WD series, provided a variety of tools. In addition to WD Drive Utilities, there are also WD SmartWare which serves as a backup (for Windows) and WD Security (for Windows and Mac).
In addition to changing the format of the hard drive, the WD Drive Utilities can display the health status of the hard drive itself. Meanwhile, as the name implies, WD Security can secure the contents of the drive using a password. Which should be noted is that you should really remember password, because without the password the contents of the drive will not be accessible. Then for WD SmartWare, its function is to assist the process of backup files from a PC or laptop to the hard drive.
Performance
To read and write transfer rates, slim My passport can not be said to be tight. Performance is also still under his brother, the My Passport Ultra. To transfer data at USB 3.0, transfer speed read and write adalh 117MB / s. As for the data transfer on USB 2.0, read and write transfer speed is 39MB / s and 31MB / s.
In features and software is no different from previous My Passport series. If you already have a My Passport Ultra series, it seems no need to force yourself to buy slim version. Unless you really need a new external hard drive that is thinner.
