    This 3 tb drive is fairly small and sleek. USB 3.0 is a nice update. The box promised 10 Gig of space online but the online service only provides 5Gig once one registers their drive. I contacted customer service but not much help there they just reiterated the website to go to to register my HD. Overall a very good product for backing up files. Will sinc with other Mac products quite easily.

    I like the Lacie products mainly because they keep the power supply the same with all their units. I also like the easy way to store and label. I do not like the idea that best buy does not carry them continuously.

    Bought this to replace a LaCie that died on me after five years. My MacBook Pro recognizes it quickly and Lightroom finds it just as quickly. Its well built and seems very solid, I would highly recommend this drive.

    Great product. Very strong and sturdy and small enough to be a great travel drive. Wish it had at least firewire connection to be able to use it as an HD video editing drive.

    Overall I think this is a great external hard drive. Nice solid case, on/off switch (many do not have this). The lack of USB 3.0 means it takes more time to transfer files, but that is not an issue for me since I mainly am using it for archiving.

    I bought this external hard drive but returned it before using because I I was afraid that I would not work as well as another external hard drive.

    This was the easier product to install and get running that i have seen. The Porsche backup is silent and the blue light lets me know it is working!

    After having two Western Digital hard drives fail within 2 years of purchase and being basically brand new since I only backed up my data every 6 months, I was disgusted. A techie pointed me in the direction of the LaCie as a product with better components. I lost 16 years of backup data with Western Digital's two "My Book." Happy with the LaCie.

    Needed a large capacity hard drive for backups and to archive my 6,000 classical CDs. This drive is a perfect math.

    This is my 3rd LaCie drive. These drives are perfect for the large format photo files I work with. Seamless integration with my iMac. Fast data transfer. Next drive I purchase will be NAS and will definitely look at what LaCie has to offer.

    Stay Away!! Both crashed a month apart!

    Gotta say this is the first time I've given a review, but I am compelled by the complete trash that Seagate has become!! I purchased these LaCie Porsche P'9320 #TB external hard drives thinking I was getting a good drive. Love the design and the feel of the drives and the stability of the horizontal lay. I purchased one in late 2013 and another in early 2014. The first one crashed a month ago, just past warranty (I think 3 years) and the other just followed suit today, a month later!! The cost to recover data? $1700@!!! When I researched further, it was then that I realized these drives used Seagate Barracuda disks. I should have known, literally. I am a photographer and to have both your main and backup go down is a big blow. Several years ago I had a WD fail and WD replaced a 320GB drive with a 4TB U-series raid setup and worked to help recover my data, all outside the warranty. I have 8 WD drives now.
