    Good storage item for enthusiast photographers

    I use this to hold photos from my SLR. Highly portable and fast enough to edit on the fly. Works flawlessly with iPad Pro as well as PC. An excellent fast and reliable file bucket. Might get a second for backup given how cheap it is. Software is actually useful for that purpose. Syncs with Adobe easily. Just point Lightroom to it and it’s a seamless experience. Pros might want something more like a NAS with RAID, but as an enthusiast this fits the bill.

    Perfect Mac Time Machine backup drive for Mac Mini

    It has become too costly for me to use a Solid State Drive to use for a Mac Time Machine back up my Mac Mini M2 Pro computer. The recent highly extreme costs of SSDs forced me to try the LaCie 5 TB HD and I could not have made a better decision. Works like a charm. I will now begin to erase and replace my SSDs to create more storage space for my video production and photography projects. Lacie will also now be an option for further purchases.
