This is a good, compact, quiet and fast drive. It doesn't weigh much at all. I would like if it was 7200rpm but 5400rpm is good too. The product suits my needs perfectly and hasn't given me any hiccups yet.

Had this drive for less than 13 months when it failed completely with physical errors. Can't reinitialize. In other words, it's a brick. It was never dropped. In fact, it was never moved from the top of my MacPro desktop and used only occasionally as a back up drive.

It performs as it is advertised to and priced right. It is what is is as a hard drive and it does what it's supposed to. I would recommend it to anyone that wants a hard drive that stores data and things like that...otherwise you may be out of luck.

I bought this drive a few months ago, been using it for backups and storing my music library. It's very simple to use - play-and-play, very fast, it works perfectly with Time Machine and the USB 3 speed is great. The casing doesn't get scratched easily, still looks like new.

The former one was strong (I used it for 18 months and I travel constantly) and well-protected (although with time, the aluminium enclosure of the original rugged would suffer somewhat - it did). The new one looks really indestructible.

I've owned this drive for about a year and I like it; I just bought a second one. I have the 1TB, 5400 RPM version; there are also two 500GB versions of this "Rugged Triple" with the dual FW800 ports and single USB3 port; one of these 500GB versions runs at 7200 RPM (as Lacie's literature and...

If you need the fastest rugged portable storage, the LaCie Rugged USB 3.0 Thunderbolt ($199.99 list) is the external drive you want. This solid-state drive (SSD) is made for a Mac, but is strong enough for a PC, especially now that Thunderbolt is available on Windows laptops.

Still pricey on a GB per dollar basis
