Hi all,

I love my  Chromebook but I am not sure I can use My Passport with it. I just wanted to download items to it or download some items from my  Cloud and keep on the drive. Can I use My Passport external drive with an Acer Chromebook? Are they compatible at all?

Hi well the hardware would support it but Google chrome os may not. From what they say if it is a ntfs format or fat it should work. Here is a list from Google on what formats the os supports but you may need to contact them to be sure. If it was me I would plug it in and see if it works.  https://support.google.com/chromeos/answer/183093?hl=en
