Responding to the burgeoning demand for expansive digital storage solutions, Western Digital has introduced a groundbreaking expansion to its product range.

Today, the tech giant announced a series of high-capacity portable HDDs across its WD, WD_BLACK, and SanDisk Professional lines, boasting the world’s most capacious 2.5” portable HDD.

The WD My Passport portable HDD series, WD_BLACK P10 Game Drive, and SanDisk Professional G-DRIVE ArmorATD will now feature staggering 6TB capacities.

“This introduction marks a significant technological milestone for us,” remarked Nitin Kachhwaha, director of Product Management at Western Digital. “By pioneering the world’s first 2.5” 6TB portable hard drive, we continue to redefine the boundaries of possibility. Offering up to 6TB within such a compact form factor and accessible price range empowers users across diverse domains, from students and gamers to professional videographers, enabling them to preserve and access even more essential content within a single portable drive.”

The groundbreaking 6TB capacity milestone is now accessible across Western Digital’s premier brands, catering to the needs of consumers, gamers, and professionals alike.

According to a study by Pepperdine Graziadio Business School, California titled “Data Loss and Hard Drive Failure: Understanding the Causes and Costs” it is estimated that on average a single data loss incident from hard drive failure will cost an organization $2,900, the majority of which is measured as lost productivity.

This underscores the need for durable storage devices thus giving rise to increasing spend on research.

The 6TB WD My Passport Ultra and 6TB WD My Passport Ultra for Mac are priced at $199.99 MSRP each, while the 6TB WD My Passport and WD My Passport for Mac retail for $179.99 MSRP.

With the newly introduced 6TB capacities, capable of storing up to 150 games1, the drive caters to players seeking to expand their storage without compromising on gaming choices.
