Fast and reliable Drive. Like the chassis protection. Have had good luck with these form factors over the years. The usb 3.1 is a must in 2025. The quality professional drive to get when the budget does not allow for a rugged SSD.

This hard drive is my go to. It's easy to transfer files onto and is reliable. I usually have two backups of each hard drive and these are easy to label and store. Overall, the most reliable hard drive I've used!

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.

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.

So far so good. I shoot a lot of video and it's great to have such large storage space in such a compact package and such a low price. I have a Mac and I noticed there is a more expensive "thunderbolt 3 version, but I don't know that that is necessary. I don't see a difference. It's fast, too.

I bought this to keep any and all video and photography projects after I was done with them in case I needed them, so that I wouldn't have to take up storage on my Mac book and keep it running at full speed. I would recommend working off of an SSD as it is faster than a HD and then transfer finished products to the hard drive. Bang for your buck!

Tough little hard drive with lots of space. I bought this because I needed something I could transfer large dashcam videos from my phone without the needed of carrying a laptop all the time. A very good buy. Will buy another in the future when I finally fill this one up.

Bought this to transfer videos from my IPad Pro directly to an external hard drive. I like this hard drive because I don’t have to offload onto a computer first and can go directly from the IPad to this drive. Its well built and study so I know it will last. It’s also very easy to use. Just plug into IPad and start transferring videos. I bought the 2TB version and will most likely buy another.

I own a marketing agency that does video production and we're in need of an external hard drive on the go. The external hard drive works great and not that we plan on dropping it but if we were to it's external case would absorb the shock. It's also very compact. Would recommend it to others!

LaCie is a well respected brand in external storage devices. I love the rugged, shock-absorbing exterior case. I've had other LaCie drives in the past and they all perform well.

This is a great little hard drive. It is expensive though. If price is an issue, there are lower priced drives out there. I have more than one these in different storage configurations. Never had any issues whatsoever.

I have used LaCie external hqrd drives before so I know it's a reliable product, however this one and possibly their new protocol is to require you to register your product with them and agree to accessiibility to your data. I am hesitant to do this, so I have not used this product yet.

A very good portable hard drive. super fast and lives up to the wear and tear of travel and being tossed in a camera bag. built to last and give me the security knowing they content is safe and sound. Will be adding a few more soon to my gear cause one always needs more space.

LaCie drives are great for computer backups

I have been using Lacie drives for computer backups for years They are fast and having secure backups with a reliable drive is important. One issue is that they have gone to USB C connections and should also include a cable that can be backward compatible with previous USB ports. A separate purchase of a (Belkin) USB C to USB A cable was necessary
