LACIE Porsche Design P'9230 external hard drive - 4 TB

Drive takes a few seconds to wake itself up from sleep (energy conserving) mode, but once it's awake, it's blindingly fast.
Pros:
  • 4TB is enough capacity to backup ALL my other drives & Mac Very fast USB3 was evident when copying data
  • Of course your computer must have native
Cons:
  • Nothing
  • so far

Super Fast

I recently upgraded my LaCie Starck 2TB USB 2.0 drive with this one for my Mac. The speed is at least 10 times as fast as the old USB. I completed my initial backup of ~1.2TB in approximately 5 hours! Also, the drive is super quiet and takes up less volume on my desktop than my old Stark drive.

  • Easy To Set Up
  • Easy to use
  • High Capacity
  • Quiet

LaCie Porsche P9230 review

The design and software features of the Porsche P'9230 are quite attractive, but at £115 for 1TB of storage it ought to offer Porsche performance as well as just style.
