It's been great so far. Amazing that they can fit 2TB on this little thing. That is a TON of storage. It's fast, light, seems very durable. Great drive!

Best durable proof storage, this is my second one. I had the first generation one, but since I upgraded my MacBook Pro to the new one with all USB-C I did not want to deal with carrying a dongle and saw this came with a USB-C cord I instantly pulled the trigger on buying this. Well needed if you need more storage and have a MacBook Pro 2017 model. Especially since I’m a photographer and take a ton of photos I need the additional space for my Raw files as they add up pretty quickly.

I love this thing. So tiny, so cute and sturdy but most importantly....2TB of memory! It's great for an on the go item. I take so many pictures and needed a way to store it without filling up my computer and this is it. I love it.

I'm a photographer and this external hard does the trick. The orange rubber guard really helps the drive from taking a tough fall. The usb-c compatibility speeds this drive up. I have it on my Surface Book 2 and it's fast.

This little guy is packs such a punch! I am a professional photographer and this changed the game for me. I am able to import and export images in a timely manner due to the speed of the hard drive, also it’s almost impossible to break it. You could throw it against the wall and it would till work. I am impressed!

Needed Big Brother to a 5-Year Old 1TB

I use this as the Time Machine on my macBook Pro. I'd had in service the 1TB little brother to this new 2TB for over 5 years without a hitch. The 1TH was maxed out, hence the need for big brother.
It was just plug-and-play without any issues and has been running continuously for the past month. These LaCie rugger drives have been excellent. Small, quiet, self-contained, fast, LaCie has given me good service.

It is nice and compact - a decent compacity and fast - I've used it on a number of jobs transfering TBs of 4K footage - moves fast when connected via Thunderbold/USB-C

I use this for regular Time Machine backups on my Macbook Pro. It has given me no problem at all. I even run a Windows 10 image using VMWare Fusion off of it on those rare occasions I need to boot up Windows on my Macbook. It's a bit slower for that, but for something I only occasionally boot up. So, it's fine for me. I'd recommend a real SSD if you want speed. Otherwise, for backing up files and entire drives, it works great. LaCie is a bit more pricey compared to other similar drives from other companies, but I've always trusted them for reliability and quality. I'd recommend this.

Moves fast and is reliable. Only thing I’d say is it isn’t consistent on what images to give a thumbnail to so if you’re like me and never named your procreate files then…. Good luck! Other than that it’s a great space saver.

So far it’s a great external hard drive. If your looking for something durable and on the go or just need more storage on the computer at home. This LaCie external hd is great. I’ve read some other reviews of other having problems but so far everything is going great. Both windows and Mac.

Ever since I use Macs, I have loved Lacie. Lacie (now owned by Seagate) specialized in Apple Mac drive systems, and they make excellent products. These rugged drives were expensive in the past, but since I got this on sale, I had to get the external rugged USB-C 2TB drive. It is very fast, and I know it will work top-notch. I have all my music on my portable and works like a gem.

I’ve used LaCie Rugged drives for work for years. When it came time to get my wife a working drive to pair with her new MacBook Pro (that has a SSD that is on the small side) I went with what I knew would stand up to the rigors of being stuffed in a bag and pulled out over and over. USB C was also a must to connect to the new computer, but the drive also came with a USB A so getting content onto the drive from her old computer was a snap and no clunky adapter needed.

It responded fast, rugged body and color is easy to reach for when i need it. I have tried last two weeks to see how it worked and it sure did a good job.
My friends also bought the same like mine and he used that every day to store external memory for his digital camera.

Durable and easy to use. Very little set-up required. This is the third LaCie Rugged 2TB I have purchased (each for a different computer) and I plan to buy others for any new computer I purchase. Great investment for peace of mind.

I you own a computer with USB C Ports this is your drive, only concern it runs a bit warm, but is sturdy, and so is the cable provided
