I love this hard drive. It does everything it is supposed to do with incredible speed. The rugged case is perfect for someone as clumsy as me. If you are looking for something to carry around all the time – this is it.

I got this unit for archiving files, not for use as an active drive. I would use a faster one for that and use an SSD to carry around with photo gear. But this one works fine for my purposes. It took backing up photos, videos, music and documents very well. A good deal at the price I paid.

I rely on La Cie for my data backup and I am happy with the service and selection from B&H. Even during this COVID-19 situation my order was fulfilled promptly. Thanks.

I purchased my new MacBook Pro from BH Video and part of my purchases was this LaCie external hard drive. It has excellent reviews and it was so simple to install.

Been using LaCie’s for over 10 years now. They’ve travelled all across the country with me and have always been reliable. Solid drive!

I’ve always used WD external hard drives, but heard good things about LaCie so I thought I’d give it a try. The cable for the LaCie has never had a tight fit. I barely bump it and it disconnects, which is a huge pain when transferring large files. I’ve only used this about 4 months and am extremely cautious when transferring it. I’m disappointed and am planning on replacing it with a WD as soon as I finish typing this review.

I purchased this product a few weeks ago, because it was recommended to me by a group of fellow photographers. I travel a lot and wanted to be able to back-up all of my work on a reliable drive that endures a lot of movement. I chose the LaCie Rugged Mini because it’s small, portable, and reliable.

I use this to store DSLR film files and other related media – it’s fast and when I am on set I am not worried about it getting knocked around as much because of the protective rubber casing. The orange color is great for me because it makes it easy to find amongst all my other gear. I hope they make different colors of the casing so I can get them for different projects!

Great compact Harddriver. Good price and a must have for back ups!

The Rugged Mini is a great little unit with a lot of disk space and a nice rugged design, but the icing on the cake is the 10 GB of Wuala online storage that comes with it. Unlike some other online services, apparently nobody can decrypt my files except me (files are stored encrypted with a key only I have), which gives me peace of mind.

This product was perfect match for what I needed. It is easy to store and travel with. It downloads well and keeps the quality of my footage in tact. Great product!

I just keep buying these. They are fast, easy to use and great back ups.
Kolby Weissnat (verified owner) –
I bought this to store my videos and photos. Within a week of use, the port broke. I couldn’t use it anymore.
