This SSD would provide up to 560MB/read and 530MB/3 write throughput if it were within a SATA 3 system, but we have to account for the build we see here. The chassis has a metal ring shell bisecting the black top and bottom. Drive identification was accomplished through Crystal Disk Info which clearly identifies the drive and capacity, as well as the fact that the interface is USB. The My Passport Wireless (169.99 at Amazon) measures about 0.96 by 3.5 by 5 inches (HWD), and weighs just north of 8 ounces. This SSD contains a Marvel 88SS1074 4-channel SATA 3 controller, a Micron DRAM cache chip and eight modules of Sandisk (Western Digital now) 3D NAND flash memory, each with a RAW storage value of 256GB for a final 2TB capacity.
Taking a close look at the bottom, we noticed a line running along the outside edge. Until you literally push a knife into the right edge, this could just about fool you that it was a single piece assembly.
The SSD is a Sandisk X600 SAT 3 SSD which actually surprised us as we were hoping we might find a M.2 SSD inside. Tearing down the My Passport Digital SSD was a bit tricky as it is built so well. Beside it to the right is a NANYA 256mb cache chip and below to the left is the ARM STM32F030 32-bit MCU. On the top of the PCB, we can see the large black ic which is a Realtek RT1195PN CPU based on 2 Cortex A7 cores and a Mali-400mpz CPU. This is actually the base of the PCB but we can see the SD card slot, USB 3.0 micro-B slot, USB 2.0, SAT 3 SSD connector as well as the battery connector just below that. In this picture we can see the top which still contains the 6700mAh battery (which is the heaviest part of this design BTW), the main PCB with the SATA 3 connector, the SSD itself, and the base cover. From there, we were able to pry a corner just a bit without damage, at which time three clips on the top and two clips on the bottom let go of the base.

Setting up the hard drive wireless sharing isn’t hard by following the instructions on the user manual and all it takes is just a few minutes to configure the wireless password. Taking a close look at the bottom, we noticed a line running along the outside edge. Usability wise, the Western Digital My Passport Wireless really makes file sharing much easier without the need to plugging the drive to a computer. Until you literally push a knife into the right edge, this could just about fool you that it was a single piece assembly. Western Digital officially launched a new range of backup and storage devices for rugged mobile photographers on the go. By that, I mean that you can back up your phone’s photos and videos wirelessly to the hard drive and then access them with other devices.
