    Do a lot of video editing and ran out of disk space. Best Buy had this on sale for under $100 — exactly what I needed. USB-C for my Mac. Works great. I have not had any issues. Very rugged case design.

    I got this for traveling and working on my photos and videos. Love this hard drive. It's light yet the rubber keeps it safe from falls. I would get another one just to separate my photos and videos.

    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.

    I purchased this external hard drive after using a sub par brand that failed on me. LaCie has not disappointed! Fast to connect, fast to transfer files, and holds up to the occasional drop in the floor.

    This was requested specifically as a gift for a person who is nervous about potential accidents. They have been incredibly happy with the hard drive and the rubber bumper.

    Saves my computer from storing data I no longer need. It’s a great way to keep my Macbook Pro operating fast due to no longer having large files take up space. Love this thing!

    Quick and easy to set up. Love that it connects directly to my MacBook Pro instead of having to use an adapter. Also love the rugged bumper for those “oops” moments.
