WD Drive Agent
WD Drive Agent is a utility software developed by Western Digital for managing and monitoring Western Digital external storage drives on Mac systems. The application provides drive health monitoring, firmware updates, and configuration options for WD external hard drives and SSDs. It typically runs in the background to ensure optimal drive performance and can notify users of potential issues or available updates. The software is primarily used by owners of WD Elements, My Passport, My Book, and other Western Digital external storage products to maintain their drives and access advanced features.

1 suggestionBased on the search results, I could not find definitive information about whether Western Digital has released a native Apple Silicon version of WD Drive Agent. Given that this is utility software from a major hardware manufacturer, Western Digital may have updated it for Apple Silicon compatibility, but this would need to be verified directly from their official website or support channels. I recommend checking Western Digital's official download page for the latest version of WD Drive Agent to see if a Universal Binary or Apple Silicon-native version is available. If no native version exists yet, you should monitor Western Digital's software updates as they would likely provide Apple Silicon support for their drive management tools.
