Western Digital redesigns and modernize its My Book, My Passport and My Passport for Mac portable storage drives. The redesign was completed in partnership with fuseproject, an award-winning branding and design firm. The new design was created with the customers' preferences in mind which aims to assist the user with regards to their use of the storage device. The new and redesigned drives also feature hardware encryption and password protection to secure the user's data and files. WD's senior vice president has a statement below regarding the redesigned My Book and My Passport drives.

"As the storage landscape continues to rapidly evolve, and the bars for design and user-experience have increased, the team focused on the design and user experience to catapult My Passport and My Book to the next level. Through the reimagined design language, we want to engage consumers in a conversation about how storage is core to their lives and how they feel more empowered by the real benefits of capturing, protecting and enjoying life’s precious memories."
