    Bought this for daughter's college. They recommend a rugged hard drive, and this drive fits the bill. Easy to connect and she seems to understand how to make it work.

    My last external hard drive died after a drop on the floor, so I knew I needed something solid. The LaCie is my new best friend, and I know it will last.

    I really don't need the rugged case for this PHD, but I did need at least 2TB and a USB-C to USB-C connection for speed. It works well and seems to be a bit faster than my previous PHD.

    After I broke my last portable hard drive by dropping it, it was time to get something a little more sturdy. I have dropped this one several times, and keeps working with no problem. Since you never know when your going to drop your portable hard drive, I would definitely recommend this LaCie Rugged. You can never be too careful.

    This is the perfect little storage cabinet you can carry around. It’s indestructible build. Not made to be bounced around because of the rubber protection, but it can take some banging around.

    I use this hard drive to store video files for work (things I don't want filling up my hard drive or synching up with my personal pictures/videos) and it works great. I keep this in my laptop bag and never worry about being damaged. Because of the USB-C cable, I can move these video files quickly to this drive. It does come with a USB-C to USB 3 cable if you have an older computer.
