    • A great little external drive for backing up the laptop; small but mighty.
Capacity: 1TB Style: Mini HDD
this was recommended to me by a friend who retired from a career in computer science. It is fantastic. very easy to use, I didn't need to go through the whole process and registration. Just plug and go; the directions for setting up various plans for back up are right on the screen and I've put the icon on the task bar. It has more than enough capacity for the typical computer user and has backed up my whole laptop. I have it on continous back up. Am very pleased with this. ... show more

    • Alot of storage
Capacity: 2TB Style: Mini HDD
This hard drive works amazing for storing all the photos and videos from your phone or computer. It is easy to setup and store. The speed to load and transfer files is quick. Worth the money for all it can hold. It doesn't overheat if using it for some time.

    • Reliable, Tough, and Fast – My Go-To Portable Drive
Capacity: 1TB Style: Mini HDD
This is my third LaCie Rugged, and it continues to impress. I use it primarily for backing up video footage and large photo libraries, and the transfer speeds over USB 3.0 are consistently fast and stable. What really sets this drive apart is the build—it's survived multiple trips in my backpack, a couple drops, and even a coffee spill (not kidding). The orange bumper might not be subtle, but it's instantly recognizable and protective. Whether you're a creative professional or just want reliable storage on the go, this drive delivers both performance and peace of mind. Worth every penny. ... show more

    • Update: Works OK after mysterious initial failure
Capacity: 5TB Style: Mini HDD
REVISED 01/01/25: I purchased this to back up a half-full 6TB Seagate Backup Plus drive that's acting flaky, attached to my MacMini. UPDATE: The drive came formatted EX-FAT (Mac and Windows compatible) with a USB-C to USB3-Micro B "Super Speed" (two lobes, for the drive) cable. With no spare USB-C ports on my MacMini, I used a Samsung USB3-A to USB3-Micro B cable from an older Seagate drive into a Sabrent USB3-A hub on the MacMini. It worked fine at first, then failed as described below. Retrying with the LaCie cable into a USB-C to USB3-A adapter into the hub worked. Super sensitivity in the Mac system? I have no other explanation as the drive continues to work on Windows PCs with the old Samsung cable. INITIAL REPORT: It mounted fine out of the box, and macOS Disk Utility recognized it as a 5TB volume "LaCie." The first few copy batches of multi-GB files and folders worked OK, but then copying stopped, and macOS Sequoia 15.2 reported "Copy operation stopped, volume disappeared." (WTF??). macOS Disk Utility no longer sees the device. It mounted as a USB volume on Windows 11, and I could see the copied files. Windows reported disk problems so I ran the Scan & Repair utility (Properties->Tools), which took a while but reported a successful repair. Trying again on macOS, and the same result: The drive starts up (vibrates) as expected but doesn't mount and is still invisible to the Disk Utility app. ... show more

    • Great Dane Proof
Capacity: 2TB Style: Mini HDD
GREAT DANE PROOF! these hard drives may be the toughest hard drives around. if you have kids or dogs like me I highly recommend them. I came home one day to my Great Dane puppy throwing one of these up in the air in my back yard and and trying to catch it. he had pulled the cord out and chewed entirely around the sides of it. all while doing this in the dirt pit in the middle of my yard.( my fault I left the hard drive on a table next to my couch.) well fast forward to a year and a half later and I still am able to use this hard drive as normal. I recommend them all day. transfer speeds are good. rubber case is durable. and no issues with compatibility for my Mac. ... show more

    • Little Drive, Big Storage
Capacity: 4TB Style: Mini HDD
This nice little drive is big in storage. I use it for Time Machine backups as the drive is seamlessly Mac compatible, and I'm very happy. Couldn't be easier to set up on Mac. Data transfer over USB3 is fast for my purposes — and that's how the drive is powered! Gone are the days when you needed an external power source — one usb3 cable serves for power source and data transfer. I understand that spinning hard drives (HDD) like this drive are better for data integrity than Solid State Drives (SSD): since my mac's drive is solid state, it makes sense to back up onto a spinning HDD — and it's much more affordable than a comparable SSD. I travel a lot, and I've been burned in the past by HDD failures due to drops, bumps, etc., but LaCie boasts protection against shock, drops up of to 4 feet, and dust and water resistance. We shall see... I'll update this review if I have any trouble. ... show more
