Our take
Choose the WD My Passport for Mac 4TB if you want a portable spinning drive with substantial nominal capacity, USB power, and a retailer-documented cable path for either USB-A or USB-C hosts. The product page also describes Time Machine use, which makes the model relevant to a Mac backup routine. The decisive compromise is age-sensitive compatibility: the saved setup instructions name older macOS releases, so the Mac-oriented name and historical Time Machine claim do not guarantee support for a current Mac. Check the exact model, current software requirements, and the selected seller's package before relying on it.
A portable, nominal 4TB HDD to consider when USB 3.0, USB power, and a Mac-oriented historical setup fit, after checking current host support and the exact seller offer.
A buyer who needs a current macOS compatibility guarantee, a USB 2.0 host path, measured high-speed scratch storage, a verified current Amazon ASIN, or proof that a present offer includes this retailer's listed cables and software.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.
What works in its favor
- The exact black 4TB configuration is mapped to WDBP6A0040BBK-WESE.
- Elgiganten lists USB power and USB-A-to-micro-USB 3.0 and USB-C-to-micro-USB 3.0 cable options for this model.
- The retailer describes Time Machine use, giving Mac backup buyers a model-specific starting point to verify.
What to weigh up
- The listed HFS+ setup names macOS High Sierra, Sierra, and El Capitan; current macOS support is not established.
- The 5,400-rpm figure identifies a rotating HDD but is not a real-world transfer benchmark.
- Historical ASIN B0792GRZ2D is not verified as a current exact-model Amazon offer, and a present seller's condition and package remain unknown.

What the features mean for you
Is this the exact 4TB Mac model?
The full code matters because My Passport covers several capacities, colors, and host configurations. Elgiganten identifies WDBP6A0040BBK-WESE as its black, portable 4TB My Passport for Mac HDD. That gives this recommendation a specific identity instead of relying on the family name or the old Amazon title. The saved identity is separate from the silver 4TB Mac configuration elsewhere in the historical roster; no color or bundle variant is being merged here. Capacity is nominal, so the source does not promise 4TB of formatted free space. ([Elgiganten exact-model listing](https://www.elgiganten.dk/product/computer-kontor/lagring/ekstern-harddisk-hdd/wd-my-passport-4-tb-ekstern-hdd-til-mac-sort/WDMYPAS4TBMAC), lines 6–18 and 118–137; checked 2026-10-12.)
Does 4TB suit the way you store files?
Four terabytes can give one portable unit room for a large photo, video, music, or document archive and repeated backup sets. That is useful when consolidating files matters more than keeping a very small drive. It does not establish a particular backup history, usable capacity after formatting, or the time a transfer will take. Keep another copy of important files: the listing describes storage capacity, not a backup service or a guarantee about any individual drive's health. ([Elgiganten exact-model listing](https://www.elgiganten.dk/product/computer-kontor/lagring/ekstern-harddisk-hdd/wd-my-passport-4-tb-ekstern-hdd-til-mac-sort/WDMYPAS4TBMAC), lines 118–137; checked 2026-10-12.)
Which Mac ports can it connect to?
The retailer lists USB 3.0 and a package with both a USB-A-to-micro-USB 3.0 cable and a USB-C-to-micro-USB 3.0 cable. That can help a buyer choose a connection path for different Mac generations without inferring that the drive itself has two separate host sockets. USB power also means the retailer's described setup does not need a separate AC adapter. The listed interface is not a promise of a specific copy speed; the host, cable, file mix, and drive all affect actual transfers, and no performance test is saved. USB 2.0 host compatibility is not established by this exact-model evidence. ([Elgiganten exact-model listing](https://www.elgiganten.dk/product/computer-kontor/lagring/ekstern-harddisk-hdd/wd-my-passport-4-tb-ekstern-hdd-til-mac-sort/WDMYPAS4TBMAC), lines 42–50, 67–80, and 148–165; checked 2026-10-12.)
Is the Mac backup setup current?
Elgiganten calls the model Time Machine compatible and says its listed unit is formatted HFS+ for macOS High Sierra, Sierra, or El Capitan. The same description says it can be reformatted to NTFS for Windows or legacy Mac use. Those are useful historical setup details, but they are not a current compatibility list. Before choosing it for a newer Mac, confirm current macOS support, the file system required by the intended backup workflow, and whether any needed WD software is still supported. Do not infer present support from the phrase for Mac. ([Elgiganten exact-model listing](https://www.elgiganten.dk/product/computer-kontor/lagring/ekstern-harddisk-hdd/wd-my-passport-4-tb-ekstern-hdd-til-mac-sort/WDMYPAS4TBMAC), lines 42–50 and 67–80; checked 2026-10-12.)
Is it portable, and should speed be a priority?
The listing describes a portable external HDD, gives a weight of 250 g, and lists a 5,400-rpm rotational speed. Together with USB power, those details point to a carryable storage device whose described setup avoids a separate adapter. The rpm figure is not a measured file-copy result. If your main task is frequent work on large active files and response time matters more than capacity, compare a drive with a documented solid-state design instead of assuming this HDD behaves like an SSD. ([Elgiganten exact-model listing](https://www.elgiganten.dk/product/computer-kontor/lagring/ekstern-harddisk-hdd/wd-my-passport-4-tb-ekstern-hdd-til-mac-sort/WDMYPAS4TBMAC), lines 85–97 and 148–165; checked 2026-10-12.)
What should you verify on the offer?
Historical ASIN B0792GRZ2D is only a clue from the old source row. It does not establish today's Amazon seller, condition, package, price, stock, or exact product mapping. The current Elgiganten page's package list is evidence for that retailer's described unit, not a promise about another seller's shipment. Use the tagged exact-model search below, then confirm the full code, black color, 4TB capacity, cable contents, condition, return terms, and compatibility details on the offer you select.
