Normally I don’t write reviews for hard drives, for the most part plug it in does it’s job and you’re all good. As this Is promoted as a travel hard drive though I feel like I should say a few things, a is promoted as a travel hard drive though I feel like I should say a few things.

Needless to say my confidence in the drive itself is shot. Buy with caution and always back up everything!

I have a 1 TB LaCie rugged for 6 years without ever experiencing any issue. The new 5 TB so far is working perfectly son far. Very quiet, just a bit thicker than the old 1 TB drive, it has a nice sturdy look. The USB C cable is also thicker and seems very durable.

This is a wonderful external drive. I own three of them and also three of the older, 2TB drives with Thunderbolt and Micro-USB 3.0 connections. All have proved to be absolutely reliable and fast enough for simultaneous playback of multiple high-resolution videos. I haven’t tried dropping one onto a concrete sidewalk from the top of a tall building, but the orange bumper around the drive certainly provides plenty of protection against ordinary wear and tear. (As I said, I’ve never had one fail.) The bumper also provides good friction, so that the drive will sit on any surface without slipping. It also means there’s no need to keep the drive in a separate case. Lacie originally made drives predominantly for MACs, and those who used the older drives may have experience some minor inconvenience installing them on PCs. But these new drives are completely plug-and-play. Also, on the older drives, the orange bumper extended too close the USB socket, so that the connection was not perfectly tight. This has also been corrected on the newer modes. Overall, a great drive.

This LaCie Hard drive performs well with the Mac Mini M1.

LaCie offers a durable option for the traveling professional. This drive compliments my portable SSD’s perfectly to back up all of my video and still photo files. A generous 5TB of space and USB Type-C connectivity decrease my back-up time freeing me up to stay in the field.

Working good

It does what every external hard drive should do without fuss. The nicest thing is the build quality and design. A lot of times on smaller films, the data has to move around and doesn’t have the luxury of being at a desk. Sometimes I have to put the hard drive on top of the computer or on the laptop. The orange rubber helps prevent the drive from slipping and also feels good when holding in the hand or handing off to someone else. It’s the small things that help put this to a 5/5 instead of a 4 or 4.5. Also, I haven’t had an issue with formatting, corruption, or degradation of the hard drive so far in a year.

Have only had for a couple of weeks. Is working great and was easy setup. Is very rugged but hope I don’t have to put it to test. Very satisfied with this product.

I normally buy Seagate External Hard drives, but I know so many photographers that swear by these! I bought two of them at the beginning of wedding season because I didn’t want to be caught up in editing mid-wedding season and run out of space on my current external hard drives. Well, here we are mid August and I just opened one, formatted it for my computer OS, and began backing up files. Almost immediately I started experiencing problems. The hard drive kept disconnecting, then re-connecting, then disconnecting again without me touching anything or even moving the desk. As some one who works in Lightroom directly off of my external hard drives, it wouldn’t even stay connected long enough to create a new Lightroom catalog for it. Needless to say it is impossible to work off of. Sadly in an attempt to be prepared, I ordered so long ago that both drives are no longer refundable. I just sticking to what works next time. I have never had a problem with Seagate drives and will be working off of them from here on out.

The LaCie 4TB Rugged USB external hard drive is rugged and reliable. While it’s not fast like a solid state drive (SSD), it’s useful for backing up data and transferring data from one computer to another while traveling. Fast shipping by B & H Photo, too.

Works like an orange charm and hard to lose. The easy way to protect your data.
