LaCie - Mobile Drive 1TB External USB 3.1 Gen 2 Portable Hard Drive - Silver Moon

This is a godsend for creatives that need more storage but can’t shell out the big bucks on the bigger drives. This is amazing I’ve had it for almost a year now and love it! I’m a photographer so I’m always running through memory, it is a bit slow at times when transferring bigger files but it’s usually quick to backup anything. This is great for photos first or assets NOT VIDEO FILES. If you don’t mind having mediocre speed while transferring video files then no worries but for professionals who need fast speeds don’t get this for video. On the other hand if you just need to backup your computer to get some more space than this is also amazing!

Great price! When you buy a laptop you paying for the speed and the storage space. Why pay more than $200 dollars for a laptop with the same speed and only has an additional 128 GB of storage when you can spend less than $100 dollars for 1TB of storage. Also this product can act as a backup, it has enough storage to back up 2 or 3 laptops in your house. So when upgrade your laptop or your laptop finally crashes or breaks, you never have to worry about losing your data. It also comes with all the require cables to connect to your laptop or MacBook.

Great portable hard drive form my MacBook Pro 2019. I just wanted to back up and always have access to my large iTunes library and this external hard drive does the trick. Seamless backup with my Apple MBP is what I was looking for in an external hard drive. Great price and esthetics too boot.

small footprint and was just what I wanted to take on vacation to have a second copy of all my photo's and videos we were taking. Plugged right into my surface and off we go ....

My laptop hard drive was getting critically full, this external hard drive was great for backing up, via Mac's Time Machine app. Thank goodness for ordering online and drive up pick up at Best Buy during COVID-19! I didn't have time to wait for a shipment, I needed it asap to save my files from crashing! I've ONLY used LaCie for my Mac computer, all other hard drives say they are "compatible" but they are not. Stick with LaCie if you're a Mac user!

I like the slickness of this external. Not the fastest but I use it just for backing up my ‘main’ external SSD. Well worth the price tag if you don’t care for speed too much. Just my 2¢!

Again, not much to report here. Lacie is the brand Apple sells in its stores and that gives it a bit more credibility in my mind than some other brands. This is the second one I've bought since I love its elegant design, its ultra compact size and the fact that the Silver Moon shade matches my iMac and my wife's MacBook Air perfectly. We use them as a Time Machine backups and they work perfectly (and ultra-quietly) as they should. What's not to love?

I've owned this for about a month or so and it's been working amazing for video editing. I edit my videos directly off of this drive and have no problems with speed throttling. If I had a faster PC, I'm sure I would though haha. Highly recommend for those who are looking for USB 3.1 type c drives. If you're not specifically looking for a type c drive though, go look for something cheaper haha. This thing gets hot within like 10 minutes of active use though so make sure you keep it in an open, ventilated position.
