| 1445793 | 2018-02-01 17:34:00 | Is there anyway I can put a password on my WD Passport? | lostsoul62 (16011) | ||
| 1445794 | 2018-02-01 18:36:00 | Yes. If you google "Password protect an external drive" you will find plenty of how to information. | CliveM (6007) | ||

| 1445796 | 2018-02-01 21:02:00 | Is there anyway I can put a password on my WD Passport? keep in mind that it would make data recovery alot more difficult so, make sure that drive isnt the only store for any data thats on it ie , make sure anything on that drive is also on some other device |
