    I bought this for my 11 year old. He can easily operate it, it plugs into both his Mac and pc, and it has survived him without a scratch for over 6 months.

    Great storage capacity. Downside, unable to edit. There is another model by the same maker which allows you to edit while reviewing. That model is currently on sale which brings it to the same price as this one. Wish I knew.

    I seem to buy a new one every 10 years not because the last LaCie Rugged is faulty but they are so incredibly reliable for the professional audio and video.

    Had to return this product simply because it was not the thunderbolt version which is much faster than this one but, as far as hard drives go it works perfectly fine.
