LaCie - Rugged Triple 301984 1 TB External Hard Drive - Orange

As a graphics student, I needed a large portable drive to easily carry my work around on. I decided on the LaCie Rugged because I could easily put it in my bag and not worry about having to be too delicate with it. I love the FireWire 800, it transfers my files in no time and it looks great!

A great little drive, portable, rugged and good-looking. The data is encrypted and the storage capacity is pretty good. The casing is made of strong metal and rubber, and the drive comes with free 10 GB of cloud storage, which is perfect for my needs. I'm very pleased with this product.

A few of my friends with a lot more computer knowledge than myself suggested this particular hard drive so I picked one up. Photography is a hobby of mine and I spend a lot of time photographing birds. In 32 days I probably stored 120GB on this HD because at the particular time a few species of birds are in my area. Somehow, the HD was not showing up on my Mac. I had 4 of the smartest Mac ppl I know take a look at it and nothing. Finally I was going to send it in but when I took the Orange rubber surround off, I saw one of the "warranty void if seal broken" stickers was torn. I called BB and the Geek Squad told me it would cost me a certain Amy to have them even look at it. I was extremely angry.. Not just b/c I lost a lot of photos but because BB wasn't going to do anything about it and Lacie didn't offer anything either. My friends bought me a new one but I'm nervous every time I save anything to it. Recommend to a friend? I wouldn't recommend this thing to an enemy.

I use a Mac and own a few Lacie drives and they have always worked for me. Never lost data on one.

Just as the name implies... a nice "Rugged" storge drive. This is the 5th one of these I have purchased for my business. Never had any problems with any of them. The are a bit pricey for the amount of storage but knowing that they will work flawless and take rough treatment makes them worth the price. Plus if you still need FireWire 800 ports... this is one of the few that Best Buy carries that still has it.

Very good item to use very simple and lots of space to use I will definitely recommend this item to anyone that is looking to export information material

This is the one and only external hard drive that we use for each and every tv production I work on. MTV, Discovery, NatGeo, Bravo, HGTV. Reliable, durable and user friendly. We use them to shuttle footage between he edit bays and the camera teams in the field.

The LaCie - Rugged Triple 301984 1 TB External Hard Drive is a snap to use. I plugged the hard drive in & downloaded the driver & it was ready to rock. I'm a professional camera operator so dumping footage from CF Cards to a Hard Drive is essential part of my day. I just drag & drop & my footage is transferred without a problem. The rugged design makes it easy to carry in my backpack. I'm not worried if it bounces around & breaking in my bag because it is well protected. With a TB of space it holds a lot of video files that I can use for several jobs. This hard drive is what everyone in the Television & Entertainment business uses.
