    Works well with desktop and laptops. It won't connect to USB C connector on cell phones. It's due to power requirement of the drive.

    Nothing but trouble

    Bought this to use with MacBook Pro 2016 after seeing the positive reviews. It failed while I was overseas. When I returned I was outside the 15 day return period of Best Buy. So I had to return it to LaCie, who sent me a refurbished drive. I would have preferred to get a refund, but that was not an option. Today I began to use the refurbished drive. I followed the instructions in the setup assistant to the letter. Unfortunately, inexplicably, the software created two volumes--one very small one apparently with some drive software in MS-DOS format, and a second very large one in Mac extended journaled, presumably available for backup with Time Machine. But Time Machine recognized only the first, which means I would have very little space for backups. I then searched for and followed the instructions to erase both volumes. I restarted the computer multiple times throughout the processes. But Time Machine still recognizes only the useless volume. It is not worth any more time trying to get this to work. I will not buy another LaCie produce.

    Zero stars; they all seem to fail at 2 yrs

    Bought one Rugged LaCie external drive; it failed just before the 2 yr warranty ended; had to pay shipping and they replaced. Later bought another one; it failed 1 1/2 months after the 2 . yr warranty was over and they refused to give me a courtesy extension. The WD My Passport for Mac (and their other PC products) at least give you a three year warranty! I would advise avoiding all LaCie allegedly "rugged" products.
