Fast external HDD with a big capacity. Works out of the box and is easy to setup using LaCie's software...or just formatted and run on your own

You can’t beat the amount of space it holds in this day and age. The rugged build of the drive removes the need for a case and the drive easily formats for either Mac or Windows.

I have bought my April 2023 to use exclusively on my Mac and never had any problems. I read some of the reviews complaining that the SSD didn’t work. Most likely due to not formatting. An external hard drive must be formatted for use with your Mac, especially if it was previously formatted for a Windows computer, as it may not be natively compatible with macOS.

Not much to say except it does exactly as advertised. The orange silicone is nice for keeping it protected and its not so terribly big that it's a hassle to carry around (though it is chunky). I uploaded a number of video files and RAW + JPEG files and it barely even left a dent in the storage (then again I can't really conceptualize 5TB). It comes with both a USB-C and a USB-A cord.

Designed perfectly, beautiful. They also work well. Nice transfer rates, and the rubber protecting the drive itself is useful for someone as clumsy as me.
